Place your officers and privates on the road, divided to the right and left; 



Assemble all the valiant Hung-officers in the universe, 



To help the dyaasty of Ming and kill the benighted prince. ( ] ) 



When, afterwards, we shall be reunited we will be ennobled; 



And lucky stars will, effulgently, encirele prince and vassal. 



Eoam about the world according to your wishes; 



And every where establish all our people. 



If Heaven and Earth will grant that the dynasty of Ming returns; 



Pitch then your eamps and plant palisades, to settle Heaven and earth. ( 3 )
