Words by _Ben Jonson_.

The composer is unknown. The air was originally issued as a glee for three voices.

DUMBLEDUMDEARY (_S.B.S._ 10)

A refrain rarely found in old songs. It occurs in 'Richard of Taunton Dean.' Also (as in the reference) the name of a dance.

EVENING BELLS (_D.C._ 38)

Duet by _G. Alexander Lee_.

Come away, come away, evening bells are ringing, Sweetly, sweetly; 'tis the vesper hour.

FARE THEE WELL, AND IF FOR EVER (_O.C.S._ 58)

Words by _Byron_.

Included in 'Domestic Pieces.'

Fare thee well, and if for ever, Still for ever, fare thee well; Even though unforgiving, never 'Gainst thee shall my heart rebel.

About 1825 the words were set to an air from Mozart's _La Clemenza di t.i.to_. There are original settings by Parke, S. Webbe, and six other composers.

FILL THE b.u.mPER FAIR (_N.T._)

Moore's _Irish Melodies_, air 'Bob and Joan.'

FLOW ON, THOU SHINING RIVER (_S.B.T._ 1)

Moore's _National Melodies_.

Said to be a 'Portuguese Air.' The melody has been utilized as a hymn-tune.

FLY, FLY FROM THE WORLD, MY BESSY, WITH ME (_S.B.S._ 2)

Words and music by _T. Moore_.

FOR ENGLAND

See 'Death of Nelson.'

FOR ENGLAND, HOME, AND BEAUTY

See 'Death of Nelson.'

FOR THE PORT OF BARBADOS, BOYS (_D. & S._ 15)

Original (?) See p. 122.

FROM SPORT TO SPORT (_O.C.S._ 58)

From 'Oh no, we never mention her.'

Words by _T.H. Bayly_. _H.R. Bishop._

From sport to sport they hurry me, To banish my regret; And when they win a smile from me, They think that I forget.

GEE UP, DOBBIN (_D.C._ 12)

In the Burney Collection is a tune 'Gee Ho, Dobbin.' Also in _Apollo's Cabinet_, 1757, Vol. II, and _Love in a Village_, 1762. The tune was frequently used for ephemeral songs.

It is doubtful if d.i.c.kens would know this song, the t.i.tle of which has pa.s.sed into a common phrase.

GLORIOUS APOLLO (_O.C.S._ 13, 56) _S. Webbe._

The t.i.tle of this glee probably suggested the name of the 'Glorious Apollers.' See p. 124.

GO WHERE GLORY WAITS THEE (_M.C._ 11)

('Do they often go where glory waits 'em?' _O.C.S._ 58)

Moore's _Irish Melodies_, set to the air 'Maid of the Valley.'

G.o.d BLESS THE PRINCE OF WALES (_U.T._ 29)

Words by _J. Ceiriog Hughes_.

Trans, by G. Linley. _H. Brinley Richards_, 1862.

G.o.d BLESS YOU, MERRY GENTLEMEN (_C.C._)

Origin unknown. The second word should be 'rest,' and the correct reading is

G.o.d rest you merry, gentlemen.
