A PARODY.
Sweet echoes from the Queen, as Her Majesty stands upon the frontiers of Canada, inviting the slaves to fly to her embrace.
Come to freedom, come to freedom,
Come to freedom, come to freedom,
Come to freedom just now—
Just now,
Just now—
Come to freedom, just now.
Come to freedom, come to freedom,
Come to freedom just now—
Just now,
Just now—
Come to freedom, just now.
[Repeat the following as above.]
I am waiting, &c., just now.
I'll receive you, &c., just now.
Break your fetters, &c., just now.
If you tarry, &c., just now.
You'll repent it, &c,, just now.
I'll receive you, &c., just now.
Break your fetters, &c., just now.
If you tarry, &c., just now.
You'll repent it, &c,, just now.
