68 LEONARD WHEATCROFT, OF ASHOVER. 



" Then march brave captain all along 

 Into yon Scotland Borders, 

 And we will follow you along 

 If you will give us orders. 



" And when we come before their face 

 Then will we all be merry, 

 And put you into mickle grace, 

 Noble Captain Harry. 



" Lieftenant now bring up your men, 

 Our captain's now before us : 

 We'll make the Rebells quake for feare 

 For domineering o'er us. 



" I can abide no flattering tongue 

 Let e'er a man so smooth bee 

 I scorn to offer any wrong : 



So God bless Captain Boothbee. 



"Z. IV.' 



" Vpon the \'ictorious Conquests of M' Henry Wright when 

 he was Captaine : — 



" Here lies the Body of one Captaine Wright 

 Whom none can equal whether by day or night : 

 For his great prowis and his valliant actes 

 Noe King or Prince or Knight could e'er him tax. 

 To tell you of his warlike deeds shall I 

 Extol his valour? — Sir, I scorn to lie 

 For at that fight he was at Willoughbee : 

 He was commander of the whole partee, 

 And by his valour did so stoutly charge 

 That thorrough all he made his passage large. 

 At Ashby-de-la-Zouch he won the day 

 And took all prisoners — but what did run away. 

 Also at Barton-upon-Trent : There hee 

 Routed Prince Robert (Rupert), drove him the counteree. 

 At Winfield-Manner I'm sure he was there- 

 Entering the same, without all dread or feare. 

 Also at Naseby: there he play'd his part 

 And made them run, and glad with all his heart. 

 His fame was great at Horncastle's great Race : 

 For there he wounded many a noble face 

 With his good sword, and never-daunted steed : 

 Thousands of men that day were made to bleed.
