Left Lazare, on Brittany shore.

First to Belleisle they steer’d their way

July the fifteenth, that very day,

Where they the Elis’beth did join,

A man-of-war, with arms and coin,

To be his guardian ship, and store,

But could not reach the British shore;

Altho’ well mann’d with sixty guns,

The English Lion, made blood and wounds,

Her captain slew, and seventy more;
