A New Song at Marybone Gardens by Raworty and Snow
A historical verse card notes a song by Mr. Raworty with music by Mr. Snow jun. The lines compare a bird seeking food to a mother pining for her absent child, then shift to the speaker’s longing for a lady and the Saint’s fervor guiding verse. It hints at ardent love and pious restraint within a period poetic style.
