| The Master-piece of LOVE-SONGS. / A Dialogue betwixt a bold Keeper and a Lady gay, / He woo'd his Lords Daughter and carried the day, / But soon after marriage was forc'd for to fight, / VVith his Lord and six Gentlemen for his own right, / He cut them, and hew'd them, and paid them with blows, / And made them his friends that before were his foes. | |
