| Description | This ballad celebrates the news of Queen Victoria's pregnancy - she was married in Feb. 1840 and had her first child, Princess Victoria "Vicky" of Great Britain (Princess Royal), in Nov. 1840. The ballad though, anticipates a male heir. First line reads: Attend you ladies, one and all. |
