Bil-li Taylor was a gay young feller, Full of life and fall of glee, And ‘s ’eart he did diskiver Toa la-di fair and free. Four and twenty stout young feliera, Clad they vas in blue array, Came and nabbed this Bil-li Taylor, And they took him off ta sea. Soon his true love foller-ed arter, ‘Under the name of Richard Garr, And her lilly vite hand dabbed over Vith that nast-i pitch-i tar. She vas vounded in the first engagement, Viting like a man among the rest, For a cannon bail did *it er And diskivered her lily vite breast. ‘The captain vas hevery hinch a eulor, Says ’e ‘‘vat vind has blowed you ere! Says she, * ‘I,m hunting for Bil-li Taylor, And I loves "im werry dear.” Says 'e, says'e, *‘Now you're a wictim! I'll see you righted, miss, I swear: Git bup vith the hearly bird in the morning, You'll see "tm vith ‘s la-di fair!” ei So she rose hup hearl-i in the morning, And hoff she started at the break of day; And there she saw that Bil-li Taylor Wollickin’ with his la-di gay. ~ Vorthvith she called for sword and pistols, Vich vas brought at ‘er command ; And then she shot that Bil-li Taylor Vith ‘is la-di on the strand. Ven the captain came for to "ear on "t ‘E wery much approved of what she'd done. And £o’e made 'er first leftenant Of the gallant Thanderbomb. But she didn’t like that sitivation, For she preferred another rate; Bhe foller’d the bent of her incliaation, And £0 became the captin’s mate. BOX OFFICE NOW OPEN. BOX OFFICE ROW OPEN.
