CAVALIER TUNES, 81

CAVALIER TUNES.

I. MARCHING ALONG.

a

Kentisu Sir Byng stood for his King,

Bidding the crop-headed Parliament swing:

And, pressing a troop unable to stoop

And see the rogues flourish and honest folk droop,
Marched them along, fifty-score strong,
Great-hearted gentlemen, singing this song.

God for King Charles! Pym and such carles

To the Devil that prompts ’em their treasonous -
parles !

Cavaliers, up! Lips from the cup,

Hands from the pasty, nor bite take nor sup

Till yowre —

Cuorus. — Marching along, fifty-score strong,
Great-hearted gentlemen, singing this song.

Hampden to hell, and his obsequies’ knell.

Serve Hazelrig, Fiennes, and young Harry as well!
England, good cheer! Rupert is near!

Kentish and loyalists, keep we not here,

Cuo. — Marching along, fifty-score strong,
Great-hearted gentlemen, singing this song ?
