Makes the name of her odd hero;

But, to suit this bards convenience,

And his transatlantic measure,

Pray let him say “Cet-e-wayo.”)

If you ask me “Why ‘the gentle?’”

I shall answer, I shall tell you,

I shall pity you and tell you,

’Tis because he is a savage,

Who by force compelled his people

To become a tribe of cut-throats.
