THE Kind Lad & Scornful Lass: OR, A Comical Dialogue between CORYDON and MOPSA .
A New Song much in Request, To a New Tune. ptitle::end
|
NOw Mopsa now we are alone,
|
I prithee be not coy,
|
But kind unto your Corydon ,
|
that he may you enjoy:
|
I'll hug ye, kiss ye, love ye too,
|
more than all the World beside,
|
And if I find ye to be true,
|
you soon shall be my Bride;
|
Then prithee pull off this fine Geer,
|
That we may go to Bed my Dear.
|
Do not rumple my Top-knot,
|
I'll not be kiss'd to day,
|
I'll not be pull'd nor haul'd about,
|
thus on a Holy-day;
|
But if your Rudeness you won't leave
|
no more words to be said,
|
See this long Pin upon my Sleeve,
|
I'll stick it to the head;
|
And if you rumple my Head-Geer,
|
I'll give you a good Ferret of the Ear.
|
What makes you be so peevish now,
|
when that I do adore ye,
|
And prize ye too, I swear and vow,
|
be kinder I implore you;
|
Then Love and Hate, do what you will
|
you are all over Charms;
|
I can't forbear to love you still,
|
then come unto my Arms,
|
And since that it is Holy-day,
|
Let us together go and play.
|
Come upon a Worky-day,
|
when I've my Old Cloaths on,
|
I will not be so nice nor coy,
|
nor stand so much upon;
|
Then hug and pull and do your best,
|
yet I will gentle be;
|
Kiss hand and mouth, and feel my breast,
|
and tickle too my knee;
|
I'll not be put out of my Robe,
|
You shall not rumple my Commode.
|
I have no time to come abroad,
|
upon a Worky-day;
|
Then prithee Mopsa be not proud,
|
but let us go and play:
|
I long so much thy Lips to kiss,
|
and fold you in my Arms;
|
Then don't deny me now the Bliss,
|
but let us taste the Charms,
|
And sweetly pass our time away,
|
Then prithee make no more delay.
|
What is the matter Corydon ,
|
that you do thus intrude?
|
When I have got my best Cloaths on,
|
you should not be so rude:
|
Oh fie, nay pish, what do you mean?
|
I'll sware I will not stay,
|
Then get you gone, and come again
|
upon another day,
|
I will not be so finely drest,
|
Then hug and kiss, and do your best. part::end
