In preparation for therallying of the men of the tea party at the GreenDragon, the following ditty was composed: Rally Mohawks! bring out your axes,And tell King George well pay no taxes On his foreign threats are vain, and vain to thinkTo force our girls and wives to drink His vile Bohea!Then rally boys, and hasten onTo meet our chief at the Green Dragon.
