The Legendary Ten Seconds - A Warwick

As a captain of Calais a hero so bold
But sometimes a pirate so I've been told
To guard England's foothold in France he did strive
And thus his sense of pride stayed alive

As Warwick the Kingmaker he is well known
For the influence he had on our country's throne
The men of Kent so tired of misrule
To his standard they flocked like thieves to a jewel

The ragged staff and bear
This history book I will share
Near Barnet his cannons roared
Throughout the night for that mighty lord

At the second St Albans he suffered defeat
His archers killed in house and in street
King Henry the Sixth sat under a tree
Lord Bonville to guard him for his safety
