History: From the East Anglia

Tourist Board in England:

powerful cannon during the

English Civil War (1642-49).

It was mounted on top of the St

Colchester defending the city

against siege in the summer of

1648. (Although Colchester

was a Parliamentarian

stronghold, it had been captured

by the Royalists and they held it

for 11 weeks.) The church

tower was hit by the enemy and

the top of the tower was blown

off, sending

tumbling to the ground.

Naturally the King's men* tried

to mend him but in vain.

Little Johnny wants to play.

17 I've Been Working on the

Just to pass the time away.

blowing?

Rise up so early in the morn.

Don't you hear the captain

Dinah, won't you blow,

Dinah, won't you blow,

Dinah, won't you blow your

Jack and Jill

Went up the hill

To fetch a pail of water.
