〈♫〉〈♫〉 OLD Charon thus preach'd to his Pu╌pil A╌chil╌les, I'le tell you young Gentleman what the Fate's will is: You my Boy, you my Boy, must go, must go, the Gods will have it so, to the Siege of Troy; thence ne╌ver to return, thence never to return, never to re╌turn to Greece again, but before those Walls to be slain, but before those Walls to be slain, before those Walls to be slain. Let not your noble Courage be cast down, let not your noble Courage be cast down, let not your noble Courage be cast down, let not your noble Courage be cast down, but all the while you lye before the Town drink, all the while drink, all the while you lye before the Town drink, and drive Care away, drink and be merry, you'l ne're go the sooner, the sooner, you'l ne're go the sooner to the Stygian Ferry.
