For they are men of honour,
belonging to the crown,
Here is a health to George our King,
and to this light dragoon.

The ORANGE and BLUE.
IT was on a Monday morning,
as I was going to Maſs,
I had no mind of liſting, vald
until they did me prefs.
Bad company enticed me to
partake of a full flowing bowl,
And the advance money they gave me,
was a guenea and a crown.
O! my deareſt dear he is liſted,
and ta'en a white cockade,
O! he is a clever fellow,
befide he's a roving blade.
Sure he is a clever fellow,
and is gone to ſerve the king;
My vexy heart is a bleeding
all for the love of him,
It was on a Monday morning,
juſt by the break of day
The Captain commanded the Lieutenant,
to march thoſe men away.
