The Goldsmiths they are next to them,

A braver Company there cannot be;

All in their Liveries going most bravely,

And Colours spread most gallantly:

They do wait, they attend, and then they stay there,

Until the coming of my Lord Mayor.

The Merchant-Taylors now they come in,

A Company both stout and bold;

Most willing to perform their Duties,

Scorning of any to be controul'd:
