Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Songs of England´s Glory There has always been much disputation concerning the origin and authorship of the National Anthem. Perhaps its words are an imitation from the Domine Salvum of the Catholic Church. It is, however, asserted by Chappel, and also by Dr. Fink, a German musical antiquary, that Dr. Henry Carey, an English poet and musician (1696- 17430, was author both of the words and the melody. The anthem was composed, it is said, in honour of a birthday of George II., and was performed for the first time at a dinner given on that occasion in 1740 by the Mercer´s Company in London. God save our gracious King, Long live our noble King, - God save the King! Send him victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us, - God save the King! O Lord, our God, arise, Scatter his enemies, And make them fall! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
