- Here comes I Prince George,
All shining white,
I am a flaming champion boy,
Upon a starry night,
For seven long years
I fed my horse with oats and straw,
And afterwards I ran away.
Here comes I Oliver Cromwell,
As you may all suppose
I have conquered many a nation
With my long copper nose
I made the French to tremble
And the Spanish for to quake
And I fought the jolly Dutchman
Until his heart did ache
I fought Samson
Samson fought me
Samson was a good man
But he couldn't conquer me.Sapie George alive sir
Pull out your sword and try sir
I reaper through your breast
And make you die away sir(continues on next page)- Collector
