UPon the Banks of Ireland, when first we Landed there, So cold was then our Lodging, yet harder was our Fare; For want of Meat and Drink, Sir, our Men did pine and dye, And I will no more go into Dundaugh Camp to lye. O come away, sweet Peggy, and hear what I shall say, We must for famous England, there to receive our Pay:
Now for thy constant kindness, I will love thee till I dye, And I will no more go into Dundaugh Camp to lye. I'll take thee cross the Ocean, unto my native Land, And study thy Promotion, then don't disputing stand; These Arms shall still Embrace thee, in Love and Constancy; And I will no more go into Dundaugh Camp to lye.
Sweet Souldier, since you Woo'd me, my Friends have made a noise, Then do not thus delude me, with such fine Golden Joys, For fear of Parents anger, your Suit I must deny, Although you will no more go into Dundaugh Camp to lye. What need you fear your Father or Mothers angry Frowns? My Hand and Sword shall Guard you through Cities, Courts and Towns: For thee, my dearest Jewel, I'll Fight until I dye; And Love, I will no more go into Dundaugh Camp to lye. But Souldier, should you leave me, when you another find, This would perplex and grieve me, should you prove so unkind: Therefore I'm loath to venter, your Suit I must deny; Although you do no more go into Dundaugh Camp to lye. I cannot be so Cruel, while I remain alive, If I am false, sweet Jewel, then never let me thrive:
I never will deceive thee, but love thee till I dye; Yet now I will no more go into Dundaugh Camp to lye.
