Hi Joe- You are a STAR!

The copy I gave you was from a Bristol (Maine) Bicentennial celebration booklet and indeed they left out a couplet (this one always made me chuckle when my cousin recited it!) Sorry I didn't proofread

Here are the corrected verses from Minstrelsy of Maine

The captain of this bloody crew,
Then I'll tell him what I will do."
Bold was the pirate Dixey Bull
Said he "Of fight I am chuck full


Dixey Bull a new trick tried,
Laying deep his sword in Curtis' side
But Curtis, brave as man can be
Laughed at their cheers of three times three

Thanks again for transcribing this

cheers! Julia
