FROM "PUNCH." THE CANADIAN VOLUNTEER SONG. Air — " The Canadian Boat Song." Fenian rogues, colleagued in crime, Marauders, once more they have failed this time, Scum of tlie earth, which alone to skim The hangman is meet, and base work for him ! Lo, brothers, 10, the thieves run fast, The rascals off sheer, and the danger's past. Whilst plunder's flag those foemen furl, As high as a kick can a caitiff hurl, The villains who that banner bore The frontier we foot, each scoundrel o^r; Ho, brothers, ho, the knaves run fast ! Their rifles, for fear, are behind them cast. Up, away, skyward, trembling loon, Aloft as far as the pale-faced moon ; Shame of the Green Isle. Erin a fair, From tip of toe through fields of air ! So, brothers, so, the brute flies fast, And won't he come down with a bump at last ! For remainder qf News see Fourth page.
