LEt us now with joy Proclaim, The Glory and renowned Fame, Of a valiant Army which does Fight, Putting Rebell-Tories to their flight: Since the storming fair Athlone, They have been beat and overthrown In a sharp and bloody Battle, where Cannons Roar like Thunder in the Air: O're Hill and Dale, we did them assail, Sending flighting-shot like showers of Hail, We did appear, Boys, bold of fear, That of Rebels we the Land may clear.
In the Bogs they Posted were, To which we straightways did repair, And with fire did them so salute, That they were not able to dispute, Therefore did they out of hand, Fly to their mighty Armed Band, Which was Posted on a mighty Hill, Thither did we March with right good will: But when they see our bravery, Many of the Teagues cry'd bitterly, Hub, bub, a boo, what shall we do, They will kill and take our Nation too.
Still we charg'd them home brave Boys, Thus while our noble Warlike noise, Eccho'd round the Hills and Vales also, This did soon amaze the daring foe, For as we did them assail, Their Horse did presently turn rail, And with double speed away did flye, Biding Teague that fought on foot, good bye: Sarsfield would fain, rally them again, But they rid and still cry'd out amain, They in a tweague, marchd on three League, For to put the kill upon poor Teague. Therefore still be-Chreest we'll flye, 'Tis better then return and dye, For they'l serve us as they did before, Lay poor Teagues in streams of reeking Gore: With this resolution bent, The Tory Troops away they went, But the foot alas, was forc'd to stand, Where they fought like men with heart & hand For they did fight, till gloomy night, Then their foot did venture to take flight; Their Warlike Train, we did obtain, And five thousand Tories there lay slain. Thus the Rebels did we maul, Taking their Baggage, Guns and all, Many of their great Commanders too, Thus with vigor we the work persue: In this noble Action then, We hardly lost five hundred Men, But the Rebels they are scattered so, That their Courage will be soon brought low: At Galloway, our Guns shall play, If they do not yield without delay, For we'll persue French and Tories too, Till we clear the Land of all the crew.
