From a late London paper.
SONG, to the tune of Derry Down
The Expenses of war, and corruptions of peace,
Are the same to the people, their taxes ne'er cease;
That the poor are distrest, we all know to be true;
So damn the old parliament, heigh! for a new!
Derry down.
. . . [3 more verses with burden]
