To all Aspiring Heroes Bold,
who have spirits above slavery and trade,
and inclinations to become gentlemen,
by bearing arms in
His Majesty’s Royal Regiment,
commanded by the magnanimous
The Earl of Loudon
Let them repair to the drum-head where each
gentlemen volunteer shall be kindly and
honourably entertained, and enter into present
pay and good quarters: besides which, gentlemen,
for your further and better encouragement you
shall receive one guinea advance;
a crown to drink
HIS MAJESTY King George’s health;
And when you come to join your respective
regiment shall have new hats, caps, arms,
cloathes, and accoutrements, and everything that
is necessary and fitting to complete
a gentlemen soldier.
God save their Majesties,
and success to their arms.
