The Torquay Pageant, Pt. Two
Overlooking Torbay on a perfect June day
Our Pageant begins at a time
When mammoths still roam
And Torquay is home
To cavemen depicted in mime
Then next are displayed fair maidens afraid
For the druids to sacrifice
But what of the omens
Then enter the Romans
The maidens saved in a trice
In episode three an Abbot we see
Torre Abbey is endowed
Children are playing
The monks they are praying
Of the abbey they are so proud
A noble man's wedding and then we are heading
To a challenge on fine steeds
Then Drake on the hoe
With a fair wind to blow
We hear of his brave deeds
A Princess arrives to our surprise
And also Devon's high born
A triumphal parade
Of the actors is made
In all the costumes worn
In all the costumes worn
Our Pageant begins at a time
When mammoths still roam
And Torquay is home
To cavemen depicted in mime
Then next are displayed fair maidens afraid
For the druids to sacrifice
But what of the omens
Then enter the Romans
The maidens saved in a trice
In episode three an Abbot we see
Torre Abbey is endowed
Children are playing
The monks they are praying
Of the abbey they are so proud
A noble man's wedding and then we are heading
To a challenge on fine steeds
Then Drake on the hoe
With a fair wind to blow
We hear of his brave deeds
A Princess arrives to our surprise
And also Devon's high born
A triumphal parade
Of the actors is made
In all the costumes worn
In all the costumes worn
