When skilfully aimed, whole ranks of the foe.

The soldiers to rest and refreshment invite.

To mark time for the soldiers as forward they come.

Fortifications and bridges they build.

Its farms for provisions and fodder are raided.

And never be caught, while on duty, asleep.

And as a sharpshooter very expert.
