Description
Excerpt: Ballad: The Darned Mounseer I shipped, d'ye see, in a Revenue sloop, And, off Cape Finisteere, A merchantman we see, A Frenchman, going free, So we made for the bold Mounseer, D'ye see? We made for the bold Mounseer! But she proved to be a Frigate and she up with her ports, And fires with a thirty?two! It come uncommon near, But we answered with a cheer, Which paralysed the Parley?voo, D'ye see? Which paralysed the Parley?voo!
