GLEE for Three Voices. WHEN Arthur first in court began, To wear long hanging sleeves; He entertain'd three serving men, And all of them were thieves. The first he was an Irishman, The Irishman lov'd usquebaugh, Dr. CALLCOTT. The Scot lov'd ale call'd blue cap; The Welchman he lov'd toasted cheese, And made his mouth like a mouse trap. Usquebaugh burnt the Irishman, The Scot was drown'd in ale; The Welchman had like to be choak'd with a mouse, But he pull'd her out by the tail. GLEE for Three Voices. 1 BAILDON.-Medal, 1766. WHEN gay Bacchus fills my breast, 'Tis better to lie drunk than dead." Anacreon. GLEE for Three Voices. J. DANBY. Medal, 1781. WHEN Sappho tun'd the raptur'd strain, Smollett. MADRIGAL for Five Voices. G. CONVERSO.-1580. WHEN all alone my pretty love was playing, GLEE for Four Voices. WANTON gales that fondly play Softly whisper in her ear, All the pains for her I feel; All the torments that I bear, Tell her she alone can heal, Then with unsuspected care, Where each god would wish to rest. If one spark of fond desire Harbour'd there, by chance you find ; Raise it to a lasting fire,.. Such as burns within my mind. S. WEBBE. : GLEE for Four Voices. J. S. SMITH.-Medal, 1766. WHILE fools their time in stormy strife employ, Be our's engag'd in union, peace, and joy ; Pope's Homer's Iliad. GLEE for Three Voices. WE be three poor mariners, RAVENSCROFT.-1614. Newly come from the seas, And he that is a bully boy, To them we dance this round, Come pledge me on this ground. |
