—The lines quoted by FANNY I immediately recognised as Thomas Ingoldsby's. On the appearance of REMIGUS' Query, I looked through the Ingoldsby Legends as the most likely place to find the lines in, but failed, in consequence of an alteration of the last stanza, which in my edition (the third, 1842) runs thus:
"I thought on Naseby, Marston Moor, on Worc'ster's 'crowning fight;'
When on mine ear a sound there fell, it chill'd me with affright,
As thus in low unearthly tones I heard a voice begin,
'This here's the cap of Giniral Monk! Sir, please put summut in!'"
