Much in request.
Being the Advice of an experienced Lady
in Martial Affairs, to her Lover a young
Solider.
Tune of, An old Carle to dannten me.
|
BE valiant still, be valiant still,
|
Be stout and great, and valiant still,
|
And I'll imbrace you in my Arms,
|
And please you with Loves pleasant Charms
|
And then my Heatt shall be at rest,
|
In the Thoughts of him whom I love best.
|
Be valiant still, be valiant still,
|
Be stout and great, and valiant still.
|
And I will place you on a Stage,
|
To fight a Duel you must ingage,
|
And from all Wounds you shall be clear,
|
You'll gain the Prize you need not fear.
|
Be valiant still, etc.
|
And if you'll try that manly sport,
|
I'll make you Captain of a Fort,
|
And shew you how to lay the Seige,
|
And fire when e'er occasion needs.
|
Be valiant still, etc.
|
And if you'll venture to scale the Wall,
|
I'll make you General of all;
|
Be stout and great, and always bold,
|
And without all doubt you'll gain the Hold.
|
Be valiant still, etc.
|
And if a City will not yield,
|
Then place your Tents into the Field,
|
Throw in your Bomb-balls then at large,
|
But be sure your Piece be sound[l]y charg'd:
|
Be valiant still, etc.
