She'd dash'd into the waves, and left no clue,

More than a steamer leaves just left the Nore,

By which you might discover where she lay,

And drag her upwards to the realms of day.

But what befel the cause of all these woes?

That's what I never heard, so cannot tell;

But this I know, that this same Richard Groze

Return'd no more to bonnie Scotland. Well,

I only hope he may in bed repose,

And that he may at last escape from hell.
