THE GAY, THE GAY AND FESTIVE SEASON (_O.M.F._)

See 'The Light Guitar.'

THE GREAT SEA SNAKE

Set to the air 'Rampant Moll.'

Perhaps you have all of you heard of a yarn Of a famous large sea snake, That once was seen off the Isle Pitcairn And caught by Admiral Blake.

THE MILLER OF THE DEE (_O.M.F._ ii. 1)

Words, c. 1762. Tune, 1728.

Referring to a disused boiler and a great iron wheel, d.i.c.kens says they are

Dr. Arne translated the words from the _Artaserse_ of Metastasio. This song was the great 'show song' for sopranos for many years. It was originally sung by Miss Brent.

The soldier, tired of war's alarms, Forswears the clang of hostile arms, And scorns the spear and shield; But if the brazen trumpet sound, He burns with conquest to be crowned, And dares again the field.

Tho' lost to sight, to mem'ry dear Thou ever wilt remain, One only hope my heart can cheer: The hope to meet again.
