Song for the C[oronatio]n
From The Works of Charles and Mary Lamb, IV: Poems and Plays, ed. E. V. Lucas

Roi's wife of Brunswick Oëls!
Roi's wife of Brunswick Oëls!
Wot you how she came to him,
While he supinely dreamt of no ills?
Vow! but she is a canty Queen,
And well can she scare each royal orgie.--
To us she ever must be dear,
Though she's for ever cut by Georgie.--
Roi's wife, etc. Da capo.
