This song is awesome and surprisingly I learned over 12 new words(mostly old English words) from this song. The old English in it makes it sound so cool 😅.
This song is in early modern English (roughly 1485 - 1688), but has a lot of old English words, for example Churchill’s speeches were a lot of old English words, Early Modern English is where a lot of old English words stopped being used so commonly, if you look on my channel I have some more Early Modern English, ‘When the King Enjoys his own Again’ from the 1640s, ‘Eliza is the Fairest Queen’ which is from around 1580, ‘Pastime with Good Company’ from 1507. And if you want to see even older English songs, I have ‘Sumer is Icumen In’ which is from 1265, which is in Middle English (roughly 1066 - 1485)
at 2:54 the actual lyrics are a bell of hollow ring which makes sense rather than vale of hollow ring. the person you got the lyrics from had to reupload his video aload of times because of mistakes and thats one of the ones he didnt fix

The last faction in the Labour Party are the autonomist, who favour a more devolved state.

A common thread in revolts were legal governments are replaced by ideologues of any species. The Parliamentarian, represented eventually led essentially by Cromwell, eventually were put down by Cromwell. He took the reins of power and essentially running a religious dictatorship with an extreme form of Christianity. Vehemently opposed to Catholicism, his actions in putting down Stuart sympathizers in Ireland helped feed the sectarian violence there since his time. My point is that offen th e preceived cure for bad government by revolt isn't the best option, like it or not, the US Constitution prevented ideologues from seizing power by making it d8fvicult for a demagogue from xiezing power.
If you listen to the lyrics carefully, it's referring less to "the roundheads strangle over England"... and more to effectively a sort of Parliamentarian lamentation of realising that what they had fought for... 'restoring English Parliamentary Monarchy by limiting the power of the King to at least Elizabethan levels'... had not materialised. Why?, well everything went so wrong with Charles I being far to arrogant, uncompromising and unwavering belief in his and his father's unconstitutional claim of "indefeasible hereditary right", (something that was alien to Englishmen even at that time), despite losing the first Civil War, and then the second... and this traditional English concept of Parliamentary Monarchy being all but lost and thrown to the wayside by the likes of Pym. It should be mentioned that Oliver Cromwell was not the leader of the Parliamentarians until after Fairfax gave up his position as leader of the Parliamentarians in protest at not just the the execution of King Charles I but indeed his trial and also Fairfax was instrumental to the Restoration, both of which meant he was pardoned by King Charles II, unlike many other Parliamentarian leaders.
If you hate absolutism so much, you should really hate what we have now. Which is absolute democracy, where our dear elected leaders do as they please with zero regard for God & the ancient constitution of England. You can't even order your own wife to make you a sandwich in England. Some freedom.
The Royal English and Scottish Martyr king Charles, was a good person with honour and virtue! He did his best to be the best king possible, always respected the laws and caref for the welfare of his people! Unlike this roundhead creatures. This song is indeed a good description of the roundhead and the so called "freedom" they did bring. For the King and Monarchy!

Oliver Cromwell was fucking based, as in, his power-hungry attitude and great statesmanship and generalship. Supporting him is insane, but he was a definite genius.
@@Imperial_Britannia I'm curious, what do you think of the English dictator Roger Mortimer? And how do you think he compares to Cromwell? I don't think highly of regicides, but Mortimer is one of the most fascinating figures in English history. I've never seen a man with a more heroic story fall so hard into tyranny before.
I think it's important to understand Cromwell's circumstances and his suicidal refusal to accept the crown before making assumptions about his ambitions. The civil wars are epic tragedy akin to the Trojan War, and taking a side now is equally pointless. One side was fighting for traditional loyalties and the other for traditional rights. Both sides had a righteous cause but were gradually corrupted by the war. Let us beware how we follow their footsteps even as we emulate their conviction and courage.
Well that was something both the Cavaliers and early Parliamentarians had common ground on... until Charles I became more autocratic... which even Cavaliers like Monk, (who fought for the King until capture), were not very happy about... but still fought for the King... even the Jacobite's were worried about both of pretenders autocratic tendences. Hence why the Stuarts made themselves very unpopular and why the Jacobite Cause ultimately failed, that and the fact that by far the majority of Jacobite's, at least in 1715 were in fact protestant but James simply refused to concede to the conditions which he needed to accept if he was to have any hope of regaining the throne of Scotland let alone England and Ireland, (yes Ireland was minority protestant, but the governing class of Ireland was majority protestant), so his refusal to embrace Protestantism went down like a lead balloon. "Democracy" is fundamentally incompatible with Parliamentary Monarchy... we have been voting for our MP's to send to Westminster since Parliament began in the 13th century... but we were and still are not a "Democracy"... a wide franchise is the most we can have... but universal suffrage dose not nor will ever work.
@@DemocraticConfederalist33 no equality isn´t good, it´s never good in fact because it´s a fucking lie and people are not equal and as such no one can raise the naturally inferior up, so the only way to enact equality is to tear down those naturally superior individuals which is an injustice and a disservice, hence equality has nothing to do with justice or fairness.

And commoners take coronets,
set up, yet soon put down!
Arise therefore, brave British men
fight for your King and State,
against those traitorous men
who strive this realm to ruinate.
'Tis Pym, 'tis Pym and all his ilk,
that do our woe engender,
naught but their lives,
and end our woes and us in safety render.
It's a mad world my masters,
where kings may lose their crown!
And commoners take coronets,
set up, yet soon put down!
