A Voyage to Virginia

A Voyage to Virginia is an English broadside ballad. Although surviving copies of the broadside date back to the late 17th century, the ballad could have been available in the early to mid-17th century.〔Catherine Armstrong, ''Writing North America in the Seventeenth Century: English Representations in Print and Manuscript''. Burlington, VT: Ashgate Publishing Company, 2007. (183)〕 The ballad is told from the point of view of a soldier, who is saying farewell to his love, Betty. Copies of the broadside can be found at the British Library, the National Library of Scotland, and Magdelene college.
== Synopsis ==
The ballad is told from the perspective of a soldier who is about to leave England for Virginia, despite his lover's entreaties. He urges his lover (Betty) to stay constant and true to him while he is away. He reminds Betty that he has always been true to her and has given her everything she has ever wanted, and now she must let him serve England in the New World. She tells him that she will dress in men's clothing and sail alongside of him under the same commander, but he replies that it is too dangerous and, giving her a ring, promises to come back to her. In the final stanza, the soldier leaves for Virginia and Betty goes home to mourn his departure and to send him happy wishes. It is sung to the tune of "I Live Not Where I Love."
