Like a Briton he died for his Island!
The Spanish Armada set out to invade—a,
’Twill sure, if they ever come nigh land.
They couldn’t do less than tuck up Queen Bess,
And take their full swing on the Island.
O, the poor Queen of the Island!
The Dons came to plunder the Island;
But snug in her hive, the queen was alive,
And “buzz” was the word of the Island.
These proud puff’d-up cakes thought to make ducks and drakes
