As I was going by Charing Cross, I saw a black man upon a black horse. They told me it was King Charles the First. Oh dear, my heart was ready to burst! This refers to a statue of Charles I on horseback outside Charing Cross . The "black man" may refer to the condition of the statue. The last line may refer to the reaction of the crowd when he was beheaded. |
