An Excellent Medley Which You May Admire At (Without Offense)
''An Excellent Medley Which You May Admire At (Without Offense)'' is an English broadside ballad from the 17th century, written by Martin Parker and sung to the tune of ''The Spanish Pavan'' or ''Tarleton's Medley''. The ballad does not tell a narrative, but rather collects lines of "contrary sense" and puts them together for humorous effect. Copies of the broadside can be found in the British Library and the National Library of Scotland.
== Synopsis ==
There is no narrative to the ''Excellent Medley'' because it is a medley, composed of lines from other popular ballads. As Charles Hindley says, referring to the first stanza of the ballad: "Here we find fragments of seven or eight different ballads, and so of the other stanzas, nineteen in number, of which the medley consists: thus, supposing each stanza to be composed of lines taken from seven separate productions of this class, the whole ballad would remind the hearer, at the time it was written, of no fewer than 133 popular songs."〔Edward Hindley, ''The Roxburgh Ballads Vol. 1.'' London: Reeves and Turner, 1873 (pg. ''xxvi'')〕
