WEll may the World against us cry, for these our Deeds most base, For which, alas! we now must dye, Death looks us in the face; Which is no more than what's our due, since we so wicked were, As here shall be declar'd to you, let Pyrates then take care. We with our Comrades, not yet ta'en, together did agree, And stole a Ship out from the Groyne, to Roam upon the Sea: With which we Robb'd, and Plunder'd too, [no] Ship that we did S[pare,]
Thus many a one we did undo, let Pyrates then take care. Our Ship being well stored then for this our Enterprise, One Hundred and Eighty Men there was in her likewise: We Pillag'd all we could come nigh, no Nation we did spare, For which a shameful death we dye, let Pirates then take care. We Robb'd a Ship upon the Seas, the Gunsway call'd by name, Which we met near the East-Indias.
In it was Gold and Silver store, of which all had a share, Each man 600 Pounds and more. let Pirates then take care. Thus for some time we liv'd, and Reign'd as masters of the Sea, Every Merchant we detain'd, and us'd most cruelly, The Treasures took, we sunk the Ship, with those that in it were, That would not unto us submit, let Pirates then take care. Thus Wickedly we e'ery day liv'd upon others good, The which, alas! we must repay now with our dearest blood, For we on no one mercy took, nor any did we spare,
How can we then for mercy look. let Pirates then take care. We thus did live most cruelly, and of no danger thought, But we at last, as you may see, are unto Justice brought, For Outrages of Villany, of which we Guilty are, And now this very day must dye. let Pirates then take care. Now farewel to this wicked Wo[rld] and our Companions too, From hence we quickly shall be hur[ld] to clear the way for you, For certainly if e're you come to Justice as we are, Deser[v'd de]at[h will] your doom, then Pirates all take care.
