THE KING IS RETURNING TO PARIS.

Le roi revient à Paris,

La reine est très-heureuse,

Le roi il est le mari,

La reine elle est l’épouse.


LE PETIT MARÉCHAL.[B]

1.

I was a little sergeant, don’t you see,

And I drilled my soldiers one and twenty-three,

And we all stepped out together,

In fair and stormy weather,

2.

I was a little captain, happy me!

Of my chosen band of one and twenty-three,

And we roamed the world together,

In fair and stormy weather,

Myself and soldiers one and twenty-three.

3.

And now I am a marshal, as you see,

With a score and four of soldiers under me,

And we roam the world together

In fair and stormy weather,

Just five and twenty soldiers counting me.
