<HEAD>The CALL to the RACES At New-Market.</HEAD>
<OPENER>To the Tune of, <HI>To Hor&s;e, Brave Boys.</HI></OPENER>
<P>Licen&s;ed according to Order.</P>
<LG>
<HEAD>I.</HEAD>
<L>TO Hor&s;e brave boys to <HI>New-Market</HI> to hor&s;e,</L>
<L>you'l lo&s;e the Match by longer delaying,</L>
<L>The Gelding ju&s;t now was led over the Coa&s;t,</L>
<L>I think the Devils in you for &s;taying,</L>
<L>Run and endeavour to bubble the &s;porters,</L>
<L>Bets may be recover'd lo&s;t at the Groom-Porters;</L>
<L>follow, follow, follow, led down by the ditch,</L>
<L>Then take the Odds, and then you'l be rich,</L>
<L>For I will have <HI>Brown-Bay</HI> if <HI>Blew-Bonnet</HI> Ride,</L>
<L>I'll hold a Thou&s;and pound on his &s;ide Sir,</L>
<L><HI>Dragon</HI> could &s;cower it, but <HI>Dragon</HI> is old,</L>
<L>He cannot endure it, he cannot he will not,</L>
<L>now run it as lately he could,</L>
<L>Age, age hath hindr'd his &s;peed Sir,</L>
<L>Now, now, now &s;ee they come on,</L>
<L>&s;ee, &s;ee, the Hor&s;e leads the way,</L>
<L>Full three lengths before at the turn of the land,</L>
<L>Five Hundred pound upon the <HI>Brown-Bay,</HI></L>
<L>But a Pox of the Devil I fear we have lo&s;t,</L>
<L>The Dog the <HI>Blew-Bonnet,</HI> has run it,</L>
<L>(a Murrain light on it)</L>
<L>the wrong &s;ide the Po&s;t,</L>
<L>Odds-Bobs was ever &s;uch fortune.</L>

<HEAD>II.</HEAD>
<L>Make ha&s;t, make ha&s;t, to <HI>New-Market</HI> away,</L>
<L>you idly leave your &s;port by delaying,</L>
<L>The Race will be run e'er the heat of the day,</L>
<L>we &s;hall loo&s;e all our betts by our &s;taying,</L>
<L>Run, Run, and freely your Guineas now venter</L>
<L>Upon the Brisk <HI>Brown-Bay,</HI> when e'er &s;he do'sentor</L>
<L>Follow, Follow, follow on this &s;ide the Ditch,</L>
<L>And take mo&s;t odds if you will be rich,</L>
<L>As for me i'll have <HI>Sorrel,</HI> if <HI>Blew-Bonnet</HI> ride,</L>
<L>And lay you fifty pound on his &s;ide, Sir,</L>
<L><HI>Sorrel</HI> runs &s;wifte&s;t &s;ince <HI>Dragons</HI> grown old,</L>
<L>You'll find by and by that he cannot endure it,</L>
<L>nor run it as lately he could</L>
<L>Years, Years doth hinder his &s;peed, Sir,</L>
<L>Now, now, now &s;ee they come on,</L>
<L>&s;ee <HI>Sorrel</HI> &s;till leads the way,</L>
<L>A full furlong before at the Turn of the land,</L>
<L>Five Hundred pound 'tis that gets the Day.</L>
<L>But fie on that Jockey, I fear I have lo&s;t.</L>
<L>With ea&s;e he had won it, had won it, if he had but run it,</L>
<L>On this &s;ide the Po&s;t,</L>
<L>No Man had ever &s;uch fortune.</L>
</LG>

<HEAD>III.</HEAD>
<L>To Hor&s;e, we mu&s;t not of Fortune complain,</L>
<L>nor loo&s;e our time in Jockeys di&s;prai&s;ing,</L>
<L>The Geldings are galloping over the plain,</L>
<L>while we &s;tand idle prating and gazing,</L>
<L>Run and attempt to retrive all our lo&s;&s;es,</L>
<L>And never &s;tand railing at fortune and cro&s;&s;es,</L>
<L>Follow, Follow, follow, I'll lead on this &s;ide,</L>
<L>And &s;ee if I can once be a guide,</L>
<L>'Tis the <HI>Brown-Bay</HI> I fancy &s;he trouls it apace,</L>
<L>I'll hold an hundred on the Race, Sir,</L>
<L><HI>Dragon</HI> does &s;cour it, but <HI>Brown-Bay's</HI> before,</L>
<L>And holds it, and holds it, and wins it and wins it</L>
<L>He runs it, &s;o merrily o'er,</L>
<L>I'll hold you now five hundred pound more.</L>
<L>But now were undone and our Guineas are lo&s;t,</L>
<L>The Rogue the <HI>Blew-Bonnet,</HI> ha run it,</L>
<L>(a Vengeance light on it)</L>
<L>the wrong &s;ide the po&s;t,</L>
<L>I never had &s;uch ill fortune.</L>
