- The_Saucy_Arethusa abstract "The Saucy Arethusa is a nautical song (Roud # 12675) which, although usually considered 'traditional', has been attributed to 'Prince Hoare'[1], a comic opera librettist, as part of a "musical entertainment" titled The Lock and Key, performed at the Theatre Royal, Covent Garden in 1796.The melody to the song has been wrongly attributed to William Shield, who was the musical arranger of The Lock and Key. It is more rightfully known as a piece by the Irish harper and composer Turlough O'Carolan called "Miss MacDermott" or "The Princess Royal" The Arethusa of the title is a frigate of the Royal Navy, named HMS Arethusa, which was captured from the French Navy in 1759. According to Greek mythology, the nymph Arethusa, for whom the ship was named, was transformed by Artemis into a fountain. The song chronicles an engagement in the English Channel on June 17 1778 between the Arethusa and the French frigate, Belle Poule..It opensCome all ye jolly sailors boldWhose hearts are cast in honour's mouldWhile English glory I unfoldHurrah for the ArethusaShe is a frigate tight and braveAs ever stemmed the dashing waveHer men are staunch to their favorite launchAnd when the foe shall meet our fireSooner than strike we'll all expireOn board of the Arethusa'Twas with the spring fleet she went outThe English Channel to cruise aboutWhen four French sail in show so stoutBore down on the ArethusaWhen Sir Henry Wood wrote his Fantasia on British Sea Songs in 1905 a version of this song became the third movement.This song and the story of the ship is also the basis of a song by The Decemberists entitled "Shanty for the Arethusa".".
