Captains Courageous
by Rudyard Kipling
1897

"Then captains courageous, whom death could not daunt,
Did march to the siege of the city of Gaunt,
They mustered their soldiers by two and by three,
And the foremost in battle was Mary Ambree."

From 'Mary Ambree: The Seige of Cadiz', a part of the Female Warrior ballad tradition? Circa 1620-30s?
