our Nation is in comotion
They know not what to do
The Mormon Emigration
Puts them in a Stew
How to stop their coming
Is hard for to devise
For they come a cross the ocean
And down from the Skyes
The latter line is under ground
And vary hard to trace
The other tho above ground
Is open to Evry Race
For the Law does not Discriminate
As to any Class
And So the Mormons Emigrate
Their converted mass
A law must be enacted
To stop the dredful stream
Else all will go distracted
At the awful Scene
Of men with many Wives
And Children thus so rife
Spirits from the Skies
Clothed in mortal life
Something must be done
To check this over flow
Else we must Sercomb
