THE Granadiers Loyal Health A SONG The First Line of these Notes to be Sung Twice over OLd England's Glory now begins Under the best of Gracious Kings Ill Fates which many years have frown'd With smiling Conquest now hath Crown'd And put an end to all Dispute Against our Gracious King and Duke II. The Royal Line for to inlarge For Rupert we have got Prince George Of Conduct and of Courage known To his Immortal praise alone We 'l drink the Health e're we go hence Both to the King the Duke and Prince III. We 'l Front the Guards with Fire and Sword For to defend our Soveraign Lord Let flat-fac'd Oats like Sodom burn Mahomets Saint and Christians scorn While Rebels here in Mourning lurk Because the Christians Bang'd the Turk IV. Make ready Links take your right Foot Out of the Stirrup then fall too 't Recover your Muskets Charge the Front To 'th Right and Left there 's Lives lies on 't Blow your Matches fire your Fuse We 'l make the Rebels flye like Jews V. Hand your Granadoes let 'um flye Like Thunder flashes from the Sky Like Fire-drakes or some Blazing-Star Which are true Signets of sweet War We with our Hoboys Gun and Drum Shall make Mars Harmony where we come VI. Toth ' God of Wine let 's now descend Old Bacchus that true Souldies Friend Where Mars oft fails he still Inspires Both Heart and Brain with War-like Fires Come brush about that smiling Bowl To Albermarle and his great Soul VII Come Bowl about Boys while we stay Two in a Hand to Loyal Gay And Daring Parker true and stout And Hestings must not be left out Heroick Boys when Whiggs did Sway They fear'd not Monmouth Tom and Gray VIII Howard and Sack field for the Crown They 'l make our English Turks come down And send 'em unto Tecklets Gang There let 'em either Starve or Hang A score of Bumpers round the Board To Christians and Victorious Sword IX Hark! Hark! I hear the Drum Beat Rad-dan their Majesties come Wind up your Bottoms clear the Bar See what 's the Reckoning in the Star Whilst Whiggs Designs are all debar'd Come Fellow-Souldiers to the GUARD FINIS Printed for J.
