WHeres my Shepherd (my love) hey-ho,
|
On yonder Mountain amidst the Snow;
|
I dearly love him I vow, and now,
|
will follow, and merrily to him go:My young Shepherd has Beauty and Charms
|
And I long to find him in my arms,
|
I long for Night, to Embrace him a Bed,
|
And I long to give him my Maiden-head.
|
Soft and sweet are the joys of Love,
|
Which every Virgin does long to prove,
|
I will not tarry, but Marry,
|
and every Rival will soon remove:
|
Bonny Susan does muse on all night,
|
Upon all our joys and sweet delight,
|
She dreams of Kisses, Embraces, and charms,
|
And she starts, and thinks my love in her arms
|
Sweetly looks the fair Bride in Bed,
|
With thousand Cupids all round her head,
|
She softly sighs, and wishes, and Kisses,
|
as soon as the Curtains are closely spread;
|
Every Bridegroom does then what he please,
|
And the lovely Brides their flames appease,
|
I need not name what young Lovers do do,
|
For tis known to every one, I and to you.
|
Mark how kindly she looks next day,
|
More lively, lovely, more brisk and gay,
|
Twould make maids long to be cooing & wooing
|
to see how these wantons do sport & play:
|
Some new charm in his looks she espies,
|
And then he looks Babies in her eyes;
|
Then while her fondling new pleasures does seek
|
She kindly kisses and claps his cheek.
|
Vain it is to be nice and coy,
|
And let old Time all our youth destroy,
|
I like not Whining and pining,
|
for that which one easily mightly enjoy:
|
There are bonny, brisk lovers in store,
|
And then what can Maidens wish for more,
|
What need has Susan to sigh and look pale,
|
When she might ore Thomas his heart prevail.
|
Have not Women soft charms and Arts,
|
By Nature given to conquer hearts,
|
Which never does fail, but prevail,
|
as often as ever they shoot their Darts;
|
No brisk youth can withstand a Maids charms
|
But does strangely soften in her Arms,
|
The Roughest Hero in all the bright field,
|
To a brighter Beauty will vow and yield.
|
Now young buxom fair Maids come here,
|
And learn this Lesson (to Love give ear)
|
The little Boy is so pritty and witty,
|
and pleasant and soft, that you need not fear:
|
Roger he shall have Cisley and Nan,
|
And young Kate shall kiss my Ladies Man,
|
Doll shall have William, & John shall have Jone,
|
And thus neither Sex shall lye alone.
