BE VALIANT STILL etc
A NEW SONG
Much in Request,
Being the advice of an experienced Lady
in Martial Affairs, to her Lover a
young Soldier,
Tune of An old Carle to daunten me,
|
BE valiant still, be valiant still,
|
Be stout and great, and valiant still,
|
And I'll embrace you in my Arms.
|
And please you with Loves pleasant Charms
|
And then my heart 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 engage,
|
And from all wounds you shall be clear,
|
You'll gain the Prize you need not fear
|
Be valiant still, be valiant still,
|
Be stout and great, and valiant still,
|
And if you'll try that manly sport,
|
Ill make you Captain of a Fort,
|
And shew you how to lay the Siege;
|
And fire when e're occasion needs,
|
Be valiant still, be valiant still,
|
Be stout and great, and valiant still,
|
And if you'll venture to scale the Wall,
|
I'll make you General of all,
|
Be stout and great, and alwayes bold,
|
And without all doubt you'll gain the Hold,
|
Be valiant still, be valiant still,
|
Be stout and great, and valiant still.
|
And if a City will not yeild,
|
Then place your Tents into the Field,
|
Throw in your Bom-balls then at large.
|
But be sure your Peice be soundly charg'd;
|
Be valiant still, be valiant still,
|
Be stout and great, and valiant still.
