OPENING CHORUS.—Villagers.

[Sir Udolpho, thy praise, in our lays, we still raise]

Sir Udolpho, thy praise, in our lays, we still raise,
to sweet melody.
So great are thy taste and thy grace,
Which, while there's a trace, Time ne'er can efface!
Thy rich fancies, songs, dances, entrance us,
and make life one jolly day.
Hail glory and pride of the place!
Tol de rol, tol de rol, &c.
From the River Thames to the Atlantic,
Renown'd is thy genius romantic;
And thy name shall to far distant times
Live in Jeremy Crambo's sweet rhymes.
Tol de rol, &c.
