_Heroic Women._--Browella _heide_ or _heath_, is a plain in the province
of Smaland, in Sweden, celebrated for being the place where the Danes were
totally routed by the heroine, Blenda, who commanded the Smaland women, in
defence of their husbands, who were engaged in another expedition. As a
recompense for their bravery, the women of Smaland were honoured with
extraordinary privileges, and wore a kind of martial head-dress; and they
have still an equal share of inheritance with the men.

_Ancient Roundelaye for Foure Personnes._


1st. Sing we the goodfellowes roundelaye,
And I the cittern will blithele playe.
2nd. I'll sing tenor.
3rd. The treble for me.
1st. And what shalle the bass of our music be?
4th. The wintry winde as it rushes and roars
At the windowes and roofe, and the welle fast'ned doore.
2nd. But the wine and the sack, and the canary are bright,
