# Constant swain/The maid's lamentation for a sailor

The Maid's Lamentation for a Sailor.
IN the pleasant month of June, abroad as I did stray. There I espied a comely maid dress'd in a rich array.
​She on a bed of flowers sat, her heart was fill'd with care, And bitterly she did lament for her jolly Sailor dear.
How could my parents so cruel be, to rob me of my dear? To send him to the raging seas, to a place I know not where.
Thro' blust'ring winds and swelling waves, no danger will I fear, Till I find out the man I love: he's my jolly Sailor dear.
How could my parents so cruel be, to rob me of my rest? Of all the young men in the world, a Sailor I love best
Ye gods of love prove kind to me, and send him safely here, And on my snow white breast, his head shall rest, he's my jolly Sailor dear.
How happy is the country girl, who has the man she loves? Contented with her homely food, and blessing from above;
All worldly riches I despise, no poverty I fear, Could I enjoy the man I love, he's my jolly Sailor dear.
​I'll dress myself in man's array, with trousers clean and white, And to the raging seas I'll go, to seek my heart's delight.
From ship to ship, from sea to sea, so boldly will I steer. Till I find out the man I love, he's my jolly Sailor dear.
O was I worth ten thousand pounds, and on King George's throne, Freely would I part with it all to the man I dearly love.
Ye gods of love prove kind to me, from danger may I steer, Now I will search the seas all round, for my jolly Sailor dear.

# Constant swain/A jorum of this

A JORUM OF THIS.
YE tippling fouls, as ye pass by, Step in and taste, I know you're dry, And when you've done, don't take't amiss, To pawn your shirt for a jug of this.
Now gentlemen before you call, I can neither write on board nor wall, For the meaning of my song is this, I can't trust you a quart of this.
It's you that have got half a crown, Are kindly welcome to sit down, And if you have got your money flush, You may prime your nose o'er a jug of this.
You gods that sees a future state, Some other beasts may have their fate; May the gods transform me to fish, That I might swim in a jug of this.
​Was I cast on some distant shore, Where do the foaming billows roar, For my desire would be in this, To a lovely lass and a jug of this.
Yet was I sick, both pale and wan, And scarcely able for to stand, All my own cure could be in this, A lovely lass and a jug of this.
When I am dead and laid in my grave, No corse-like-tomb-stone let me have; Give me my desire and crown my wish, Drink o'er my grave a hogshead of this.

# Constant swain/Blind cupid

BLIND CUPID
BLIND Cupid for ever, I defy thy both quiver: Neither do I regard thy long bow, Nor arrow shall prick me, Nor woman out-wit me, I am free from all sorrow and woe.
If Jenny had been loyal I had ne'er stood the trial, Of any girl but her in life, I oftentimes told her, Which made her the bolder, 'Twas on purpose to make her my wife.
​But the jade being wanton, She must needs play the whore, So eagerly that was her fame, Then I solemnly swore, I would love her no more. But laugh at her folly and shame.
But blest be the hour, That first gave her power Of Cupid, that little blind boy, Though I cannot deny, Sometimes by the bye. All the pleasures of love I enjoy’d.

# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Veratius

​VERATIUS or NERATIUS, P.FU'LVIUS, called by Cicero lectissimus homo, accused Milo in B. C. 52, (Cic. pro Flacc. 20 ; Ascon. in Mil. pp. 40, 54, ed. Orelli.)
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Virgilius

​VIRGFLIUS, or VERGFLIUS. The latter appears to be the more correct orthography, as in the name of Virginius or Verginius, but custom has given the preference in modern times to Vfr- gilius.
1. M, ViRGiLius, the f rater or first cousin of T. Aufidius, was tribune of the plebs in B. c. 87, when, at the instigation of the consul Cinna, he brought an accusation against Sulla, when the latter was on the point of crossing over to Greece to conduct the war against Mithridates; but Sulla left Rome without paying any attention to Virgilius or his accusation. He is called Virginius by Plutarch. (Cic. Brut. 48; Plut. Sull 10.)
2. C. Virgilius, was praeter B. C. 62, and had Q. Cicero, the brother of the orator, as one of his colleagues. In the following year, B. C. 61, he governed Sicily as propraetor, where P. Clodius served under him as quaestor. He was still in Sicily in B. C. 58, when Cicero was banished; and notwithstanding his friendship with Cicero, and his having been a colleague of his brother in the praetorship, he refused to allow Cicero to seek refuge in his province. (Cic. pro Planc. 40, ad Q. Fr. i. 2. § 2; Schol. Bob. in Clod. p. 333, ed. Orelli; Plut. Cic. 32.) In the civil war Virgilius espoused the Pompeian party, and had the command of Thapsus, together with a fleet, in B. C. 46. After the battle of Thapsus, Virgilius at first refused to surrender the town; but when he saw that all resistance was hopeless, he subsequently surrendered the place to Caninius Rebilus, whom Caesar had left to besiege it. (Hirt. B. Afr. 28, 86, 93.)
3. C. Virgilius, legatus of Piso in Macedonia in B. C. 57, must probably have been a different person from the preceding, since the propraetor of Sicily could hardly have returned to Rome in time to accompany Piso to his province. (Cic. de Prov. Cons. 4.)
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Verax

​VERAX, the nephew of Civilis, assisted the latter in his war against the Romans, A. D. 70. (Tac. Hist. v. 20.) [Civilis.]
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Verania

​VERA'NIA, the wife of Piso Licinianus, who was adopted by the emperor Galba. After the murder of her husband in A. D. 69, she obtained his head from Otho and buried it together with his body. (Tac. Hist. i. 47 ; Plut. Galb. 28 ; Plin. Ep. ii. 20.) [Piso, No. 31.]
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Veratius, Cn. Egnatius

​VERA'TIUS, CN. EGNATIUS, a Roman historian, mentioned only by Aurelius Victor (de Orig. Gent. Rom. init,).
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Vercingetorix

​VERCINGETORIX, the celebrated chieftain of the Arverni, who carried on war with great ability against Caesar in B. C. 52. The history of this war, which occupies the seventh book of Caesar.'s Commentaries on the Gallic war, has been related elsewhere. [Caesar, p. 548.] It is only necessary to mention here that after Vercingetorix fell into Caesar's hands on the capture of Alesia, he was kept in chains and subsequently taken to Rome, where he adorned the triumph of his conqueror in B. C. 45 and was afterwards put to death. (Dion Cass. xl. 41, xliii. 19 ; Plut. Caes. 27.)
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Venustus

​VENUSTUS, artist. This name is found on the celebrated marble of Antium, as that of a freedman of the imperial family, in the time of Claudius, whose profession is described by the letters SPEC, which Vulpi interprets Speculator, but which, according to Raoul-Rochette, should be read Speclarius, that is, a manufacturer of the glass ornaments employed in the decoration of houses. M. R, Rochette brings forward strong arguments in support of his opinion, showing that there was a distinct class of such artists, speclarii, speculorum or speculariorum fabri, and that they existed at Rome as a body corporate. Collegium Speclariorum. (Tabul. Antiat. v. 23. p. 15, Rom. 1726, 4to ; R. Rochette, Lettre à M. Schorn, pp. 422 — 425, 2d ed.) [P. S.]

# Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900/Blacater, Adam

The ODNB casts doubt on the existence of this person.
​BLACATER, ADAM (fl. 1319), was descended from a family of good position in Scotland, and after studying at several universities on the continent became successively professor of philosophy at Cracow in Poland, professor of the same subject at Bologna, and rector of one of the colleges of the university of Paris. He wrote ‘Dissertatio pro Alexandro M. contra T. Livii locum ex decade i. lib, ix.,’ which was published at Lyons.
