TO THE
Helpless Maiden.

Love I am ready at your call, at your call, at your call, Love I am ready at your call,

For I attend at your Command, and here is both my heart and hand, with something
|
else I know will -- at your call, at your call, with something else I know will please you.

And I will be as quick as you,
|
Quick as you, quick as you,
|
And I will be as quick as you;
|
Though you complain of lazy Fools,
|
You'll find me quite another Soul,
|
See here's a good right working --
|
Quick as you, quick as you,
|
See here's a good right working Servant.

III.
|
I know you well can dance a Jigg,
|
Dance a Jigg, Dance a Jigg,
|
I know you well can dance a Jigg;
|
For there is ne'er a Girl alive,
|
If that you were but once a Wife,
|
Wou'd be more ready for to --
|
Dance a Jigg, dance a Jigg,
|
Wou'd be more ready for to Caper.

|
And I am for a lovely brown,
|
Lovely brown, lovely brown,
|
And I am for a lovely brown,
|
For I'm resolv'd to have a push,
|
Though ne'er so thick, I'll beat the Bush,
|
I'll not be scar'd at a long --
|
Lovely brown, lovely brown,
|
I'll not be scar'd at a long Figure.

|
Now I am come, I wou'd it were,
|
Wou'd it were, wou'd it were,
|
Now I am come, I wou'd it were;
|
For you have won me by those Eyes,
|
That's brighter than the Stars i'th' Skies,
|
With a pretty Mole between your --
|
Wou'd it were, wou'd it were,
|
With a pretty Mole between your Eye-brows.

|
You need not want for young Men's Love,
|
Young Men's Love, young Me'ns Love,
|
You need not want for young Men's Love,
|
For Maids Distempers we have Jelly
|
Out-does all Physick, I can tell you,
|
If that you'll put it in your --
|
Young Men's Love, young Men's Love,
|
If that you'll put it in your Closet.

|
Love thou shalt have it o'er and o'er,
|
O'er and o'er, o'er and o'er,
|
Love thou shalt have it o'er and o'er,
|
Which made us strive who shou'd be first,
|
And then we panted, heav'd, and buss'd
|
What wou'd Maids give for such good --
|
O'er and o'er, o'er and o'er,
|
What wou'd Maids give for such good Husbands
|
