The lightning's flash, the thunder's roll, I heeded not, still brisk and jolly ; Soon in a calm we slung the bowl ; Each gave his girl I toasted Polly.
1 67 Sav'd from the storm, a ship we 'spy'd ; The word was giv'n, loud cannons rattle : * Adieu, my Poll, ' I sighing cried, * For soon thy Ben may fall in battle. ' Tho' both my limbs were shiver'd sore, I thought repining nought but folly, And boldly brav'd the battle's roar, Cheer'd with the hope of meeting Polly.
They struck, and soon to lan...d we bore, When sailors feel a glowing pleasure ; I flew to meet my girl on shore, And share with her my hard-earn'd treasure ; But in a calm the wind may veer, So mirth may turn to melancholy ; A tar soon whisper'd, with a tear, That Death had robb'd me of my Polly.
Full oft I've fought my country's cause, And weathcr'd many a stormy ocean ; 168 SONGS.
Thro' life have borne my share of woes For happiness is all a notion j Yet, like a sailor bold and brave, I'll never pine in melancholy, But do my duty, till the grave Makes Ben forget the charms of Polly.
