Well actually, I guess one still has the underground song codices at Belgian
universities .
I remember I have had a several of them, but 2 decades ago I have turned
them all in to the "Dr. Mon De Goeyse archives" at Leuven University. At the
time I was president of the "Limburgse gilde" at Leuven university, and I
had to do quite a lot of "representation visits" to Limburgian clubs at the
Brussels and Ghent universities.
Especially the Brussels codices were quite explicit, as well as - as far as
I do remember - the one of the "home club" of Diest.
I do remember quite some texts though, but I don't think they can contribute
to the quality level of this list.

The military generally maintain a similar repertoire.

Regards,
Roger
