O, 'k acht de Stad der hupsche Leydenaren,
Zoo als zy door haar Cingels ligt omvat,
En door 't <cordon> van nijvre hengelaren.

Zy zijn te recht op d'eer der Breêstraat prat.
'k Heb vaak met lust hun dierbren Rhyn bevaren.

(Schoon 'k zeggen moet, dat 'k steeds er tegen had,
Dat zy dien stroom, in 't statig zeewaart streven,
Den naren naam van <Galgenwater> geven.)
