sa William? Don't you know me, Missus dear? Don't you know old Aunt Rebecca, Who went away from you last year, With Peter, Phil, and Little Judy, To join the wicked Yankee crew? But I've come back, my dear old Missus, To live and die with you. I nevend soon the poor old man broke down, He fund, alas! their boasted freedom A cross and not a crown. They made my poor boy, Phil, a soldier, And took him from me far away; He stood through many a bloody battle, Was wounded often, many a day; He did noth irons, Or lashed him to a tree. Before him once, in line of battle, He saw our fine young master Jim, Then dropped poor Phil his Yankee musket, He could not, would not, fire on him; For they had played, been raised together, Young master Jim had cried for Phil-- The Yankees gave the onward order, But my poor boy stood still.

O missus! my old heart is broken, My lot all grief and pain has been; For little Judy, too, is ruined, In their dark camps of sin. O Massa William! see me kneeling, O Missus! say one word for me! You'll let me stay? Oh! thank you massa; Now I'm happy! now I'm free! I've seen enough of Yankee freedom, I've had enough of Yankee love! As they have treated the poor negro, Be't done t
