Ring For The King

 


Fri 5th May 2023, St Winifreds Church Branscombe, eve of Coronation of King Charles 111

Ring For The King

In a sleepy Devon village
On the eve of a crowning
Three generations sound
A coronation peel
Look to trebles going
The Queen has passed
Trebles gone.
Ring the changes 1, 2
Ring the changes 3, 4
Sally forth o King , sally forth!
