I’d a Bible in my hand by my father’s great command,

And I sunk it in the sand, when I sail’d.

And murdereth William Moore:

I murdered William Moore, as I sail’d, as I sail’d,

I murdered William Moore, as I sail’d,

I murdered William Moore, and left him in his gore,

Not many leagues from shore as I sail’d.

And also cruelly killeth the gunner.

And being cruel still, as I sail’d, as I sail’d,
