The bells were ringing, which discover'd,
joy, the King is now recover'd,
At St. Paul's the King arriving,
For to see each one was strivings
Such a noble show.

Guns were fired, colours flying
Women squalling, children crying,
Such a fight not seen before, sir,
Hats and clocks were lost and tore, sir,
At this noble show.

Next comes on the illumination,
Really worth your observation,
The Bank of England decorated,
No place was e'er so illuminated,
It was a noble show.

The Sunfire Office next in view, sir,
Transparencies were noble too, sir,
The Lord Mayor's court, a clever fight, sir,
Which gave the people great delight; sir,
It was a noble flow.

This shews the Britons still were loyal,
To a family so royal,
Now we've finished the scene; sir,
God bless our noble King and Queen, sir,
Wherever they do go.

HOMEWARD BOUND.

LOOSE every fail to the breeze,
the course of my vessel improve,
I've done with the toils of the sea,
sailors I'm bound to my love.
