Six gentlemen upon the road

Thus feeing Gilpin fly,

With post-boy fcamp'ring in the rear,

They rais'd the hue and cry :

Stop thief! ftop thief!—a highwayman!

Not one of them was mute;

And all and each that pafs'd that way

Did join in the purfuit,

[blocks in formation]

And fo he did, and won it too,

For he got first to town,

Nor ftopp'd till where he had got up

He did again get down.

Now let us fing, Long live the king,

And Gilpin, long live he;

And when he next doth ride abroad, May I be there to fee!

FINI S.
