The Sergeant’s Song

Thomas Hardy * Track #3 On Wessex Poems and Other Verses

The Sergeant’s Song Annotated

When Lawyers strive to heal a breach,
And Parsons practise what they preach;
Then Little Boney he'll pounce down,
And march his men on London town!
&nbsp Rollicum-rorum, tol-lol-lorum,
&nbsp Rollicum-rorum, tol-lol-lay!

When Justices hold equal scales,
And Rogues are only found in jails;
Then Little Boney he'll pounce down,
And march his men on London town!
&nbsp Rollicum-rorum, &c.

When Rich Men find their wealth a curse,
And fill therewith the Poor Man's purse;
Then Little Boney he'll pounce down,
And march his men on London town!
&nbsp Rollicum-rorum, &c.

When Husbands with their Wives agree,
And Maids won't wed from modesty;
Then Little Boney he'll pounce down,
And march his men on London town!
&nbsp Rollicum-rorum, tol-tol-lorum,
&nbsp Rollicum-rorum, tol-lol-lay!
