Catches, canons and drinking songs

to your rude health,

Song: Poor Owen, for a while did lie, despised by all...

Text:

Poor Owen, for a while did lie,
despised by all that walked by,
often they were heard to cry,
“Swan’s wine’s dry,”
one standing by said, “Let’s try,”
then one and all went to Cobweb Hall.
