THE CAPTAIN'S LADY
Chorus
O, mount and go,Mount and make you ready!
O, mount and go,
And be the Captain's Lady!
I
When the drums do beat,And the cannons rattle,
Thou shalt sit in state,
And see thy love in battle:
II
When the vanquish'd foeSues for peace and quiet,
To the shades we'll go,
And in love enjoy it.
56
Chorus
O, mount and go,Mount and make you ready!
O, mount and go,
And be the Captain's Lady!
