To walk in wisdom's ways as I sail'd. ^"^^^•

I thought I was undone as I sail'd, as I sail'd,

I thought I was undone as T sail'd, I thought I was undone and my wicked glass had run,

But my health did soon return as 1 sail'd.

My repentance lasted not, as I sail'd, as I sail'd,

My repentance lasted not, as I sail'd. My repentance lasted not, my vows I soon forgot.

Damnation's my just lot, as 1 sail'd.

I steer'd from sound to sound, as I sail'd, as I sail'd, I steer'd from sound to sound, as I sail'd,

1 steer'd from sound to sound, and many ships I found, And most of them I burn'd as I sail'd.

I spy'd three ships from France, as I sail'd, as I sail'd, I spy'd three ships from France, as I sail'd,

I spy'd three ships from France, to them I did advance, And took them all by chance, as I sail'd.

I spy'd three ships of Spain, as I sail'd, as I sail'd,

I spy'd three ships of Spain as I sail'd, I spy'd ihree ships of Spain, I fired on them amain,

Till most of them were slain, as 1 sail'd.

He chaseth three Bhips of France.

And also three ships of Spain.
