English text
- The glass was just tim'd to the critical hour,
- When we heard the report of the guns of the Tower;
- Thanks to kind heav'n, who the blessing contriv'd,
- No sooner we drank it, but our Monarch arriv'd.
- The theme let's continue, and our bumpers advance:
- Success to old England, confusion to France!
