Not illustrated. 1888 edition. Excerpt: ... THE JOLLY ROVING TAR. It was in the town of Liverpool, all in the month of May, I overheard a damsel, alone as she did stray, She did appear like Venus, or some sweet lovely star. As she walked the beach, lamenting for her jolly roving Tar. O, William, gallant William, how can you sail away? I have arrived at twenty one, and I'm a lady gay, I will man one of my father's ships, and face the horrid war, And cross the briny ocean for my jolly roving Tar. Young William looked so manly, drest all in his sailor's clothes, His cheeks they were like roses, his eyes as black as sloes, His hair hung down in ringlets, but he is gone afar, And my heart lies in the bosom of my jolly roving Tar. Come all you jolly sailors, and push the boat ashore, That I may see my father's ships and see they are secure, Provisions we have plenty, and lots of grog in store, So drink good health you sailors, to my jolly roving Tar. She quickly jumped into the boat and merrily left the land, And as the sailors rowed away, she wav'd her lily hand, Farewell ye girls of Liverpool, I fear no wound nor scar, And away went pretty Susan to her jolly roving Tar. On a summer's morn the day was dawning, Down by the pleasant river side, I saw a brisk and lovely maiden, And a youth called " England's Pride"! lie was a tight and smart young sailor, Tears from his eyes did fall like rain, Saying, adieu, my lovely Emma, I'm going to plough the raging main.

See, Emma dear, our ship's weighed anchor, Tis folly, Love, for to complain, Though you I leave, I'll ne'er deceive you, I'm bound to plough the raging main. Said Emma, Stay a little longer, Stay at...

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Modern Street Ballads My songs have had a tidy run, I've plenty in my fist, Sirs, And if you wish to pick one out, I'll just run through my list, Sirs. Have you seen My daughter Fan, She wore a wreath of roses, And here you see My son Tom, The Sun that lights the roses, Green grow the rushes On the Banks of Allan Water Such a getting out of bed, with Brave Lord Ullin's daughter. Poor Bessie was a Sailor's bride, Sitting on a rail, Sirs, Is there a heart that never loved? The Rose of Allanr dale, Sirs.
