Browning's Shorter Poems

Robert Browning

III.  BOOT AND SADDLE >

To whom used my boy George quaff else,
By the old fool’s side that begot him? 
For whom did he cheer and laugh else,
While Noll’s° damned troopers shot him? °16

CHO.—­King Charles, and who’ll do him right now? 
      King Charles, and who’s ripe for fight now? 
      Give a rouse:  here’s, in hell’s despite now,
      King Charles! 20
