The Bonfire Prayers
Remember, remember,
The fifth of November.
Gunpowder, Treason and Plot,
I see no reason,
Why Gunpowder Treason,
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes,
'Twas his intent,
To blow up the King and the Parliament,
Three score barrels of powder below,
Poor old England to overthrow.
By Gods providence he was catched,
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, make bells ring,
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!
A penny loaf to feed the pope,
A farthing o'cheese to choke him.
A pint of beer to rinse it down,
A faggot of sticks to burn him!
Burn him in a tub of tar,
Burn him like a blazing star,
Burn his body from his head,
Then we'll say old Pope is dead!
Hip, Hip, Hoorah!
