Be wise next time, adopt this plan,
Lest ye be left i' th' lurch;
And place at th' end of th' town a man
To ask him into Church."
It is said that, on the occasion of the late Prince of Wales passing through Tideswell on a Sunday, a man was placed to give notice of his coming, and the parson and his flock rushed out to see him pass at full gallop.
