English text
- Here's a health, a health,
- pray let it pass about.
- A health that ne'er shall cease till all our wine is out;
- Therefore drink away, and never let it stand,
- But ply it closely round, from hand to hand.
- And eagerly and bravely with courage thus persue it.
- For tis a health, a health to honest ruddy Roger Hewett.
