| A Merry Dialogue between a Maid and her Master, / OR all Covet all Lose. / All you that list to hear a jest, / Give ear to what shall be exprest / And you shall know what words were said / Between a Master and a Maid / After they had a bargain made / This Couple drove a subtle trade, / If youl be pleased to stay a while, / I'me sure this jest will make you smile. | |
