ATtend a while good people pray. To what I shall relate, A warning take both old and young, By our unhappy fate. Heres many of us doomd to die, Just in our prime of years, Alas! the time draws very nigh, As it will soon appear. William Macdonald. I must die, Mary Roberts also, And Charlot Gardner, so must I, Which fills our hearts with woe, Near Tower Hill will be the place, Where we our End must make, And Tuesday next will be the day, We must this World forsake. William Pateman and William Brown, Both of us cast for death, And Tuesday next will be the day, We must resign our breath, In Bishopsgate Street, I, Brown must die, Pateman in Coleman-Street, The Lord look down on us from high, In heaven may we meet. Richard Roberts and Taplin too, We surely must be hangd, I Thomas Taplin stilld myself, The captain of the gang. The time it is now very nigh, Our folly is seen too late, On Wednesday near Bow-street we die, Oh! hard is our fate.
James Henry, I unhappy man, Must soon this life depart, O little did I think to come, Up Holborn in a cart. But now in Holborn I must die, And Wednesday is the day, But on the Lord, I do rely, To the oh! Lord I pray. Fleming and Plumley we must die, The one on Tyburn tree, And the other in Oxford-street, A dismal sight to see. And Thursday is the day we die, Which makes our hearts to ach, To thee we pray oh! Lord on high Our precious souls to take. Unhappy wicked wretches sure, We all of us h[a]ve been, In riot and in drunkenness, Which is a great sin; We struck terror whereer we come, And did them sore affright, But now alass! our eyes will soon Be closed in endless night. O Lord forgive us all our sins, We thee most humbly pray, Incessantly we call upon thee, Lord, both night and day. Repenting sinners now behold, And on them pity take, Preserve us from the dreadful gulph, When we this world forsake:
