TO THE CREW OF THE GOOD SHIP PRESS.
There's a gallant crew of the good ship Press, And her Runs thunder forth her fame ; Her cru f c is of peace, for she sails trat to bless, Or to fight in Freedom's name. So we'll paaa the toast Where hor crew is found ; For our honour can do no lessHere's three times three. And a cheer all round To tho crew of the good ship Press ! When bigots ruled in the days of yore Men were over the slaves of might ; But a cheer for tho ship as she gilds the shore Of knowledge in armour bright. So we'll pass the toast Where her crew is found, For our honour can do no less ; Here's threo times three, And a cheor all round. To tho crew of tho good ship Press. So this gallant crew of the good ship Press In honour stands to-day. To shelter the weak, and their wrongs redress, And rule with a royal sway. So we'll pass the toast Where this crew is found. For our honour can do no less, Here's threo times three, And a cheer all round, To the crow of the good ship Press.
