Thread Name: Tune Req: What of the bow?
Subject: RE: Tune Req: What of the bow?
On of the residents of our club, Ged Todd, has put a cracking good tune to it and a chorus! I can't do ABC stuff and wouldn't without Ged's permission anyway but maybe Bernard here could be convinced to contact Ged to record it for Mudcat? I would count it as a good contender for an English national anthem:-)

The 'missing' verse is

"What of the mark?   
Ah, seek it not in England,
A bold mark, our old mark
Is waiting over-sea.      
When the strings harp in chorus,      
And the lion flag is o'er us,
It is there that our mark will be."

Cheers
