Dressing like a man

I removed the passage claiming Polly was to dress as a man. Of the present sources, this is supported only by the Secondhand Songs page, which is crowdsourced and not reliable. It seems to me like a stretch that "dress yourself all in your best" indicates donning a uniform, especially considering there were plenty of roles for undisguised civilian women in Early Modern and Enlightenment era land campaigns.
