her crown encrusted with renegade stars;
all the forest bows to her regal commandments,
bound to her will with invisible bars.

She sees and hears and knows all your movements,
though you think you are hiding away;
she will extract of...

Cutting down fifteen of his dragoons,
Tartleton ordered a grand charged,
with his infantry now on the move.

The sharp-shooters fired and fell back,
were absorbed in the second line,
who had been ordered to fire twice,
then get out of there double-time.

They targeted British officers,
