| Ballad Title | Two-penny-worth of Wit / For a PENNY: / OR, / The Bad Husband Turn'd Thrifty, / This Man that wrought his own decay, / And spent his Money night and day; / Is turn'd so saving I do Swear, / There's few that with him can compare: / And lives so Civil in his ways, / That all his Neighbours give him Praise; / And does repent his wicked Crime, / And desires Good Fellows to turn in time; / There's many a Man Runs himself clear out, / When Ale's in his Head, then Wit is out. |
