To Amorea from Prison.
1
Come away and blesse the Grate,With thy all commanding eye,
Come away,
Doe not stay,
We have couquered our fate
By a suffering Loyalty.
We know how to captivate,
Chain, and bind captivitie.
2
Come my dearest come and seeWhat it is to have a mind
Nobly born,
That can scorn,
And disdain a Tyrannie,
Though the Fates do prove unkind
And deny us libertie,
Freedome in our chains we find.
3
Come away unto the place,Where the Royal slaves do dwell,
Stay a while,
Send a smile
From that ever blessed face,
See, and hear, then go and tell,
That our Shackles are a grace,
And an honour so farewell.
