She hoists her flag.—My hearts, huzza!
Huzza! the English ensign see.
“O’er all the crew, with heart elate,
Our captain glanced his eagle eye,
And saw each tar impatient wait
To meet the veteran enemy.
“And see! with topsail to the mast,
The foe destructive fires prepare
As ship to ship, approaching fast,
All calm and silent, down we bear.
