| The MILK-MAIDS / MORNING-SONG. / What worser Fortune can there be, / Then what doth now attend on me, / A maid to live, and so to dye, / It is a great perplexity; / A Pleasant Ballad you have hear, / Wherein 'tis plainly made appear, / That what is writ of this milk-ma[] / Of other Damsels may be said. | |
