A thing that forehand freeness ner procurd.
To the Tune of, Canst thou not weave Bone-lace. This may be Printed. RP.

CAnst thou not weave Bonelace,
|

|

And do the other thing
|
wee Ise do what I can
|
Come then, and be my sweet
|
To Bed Il carry thee
|
No in Geud faith not a bit
|
Unless you marry me.
|
Marriage is not the mode
|
then Ise will make it so,

Il ner forsake it so
|
Thou shalt in me possess
|
all Joys that can be had
|
Then give a consenting Kiss,
|
Then wed me first my Lad

Let us but gang to the Priest
|
So dear I tender thee.

Ah do not tell me so
|
Since I admire you
|
For when I touch thy Breasts
|
thy charms so fire me
|
Yet needless is a Priest
|
Then come no nigher me,
|
For when you tempt me to bed
|
Ise no sick silly Fool,
|
But if youl buckle and wed,
|
then kiss your Belly full
|
If as you say you Love
|

|
And you shall freely have
|

But wedded my Arms shall bless

|
Where Loves delights wel tast

|
Ise venture no such thing
|
Troth your deceived in me
|

|
Come lay this Bashfulness by
|

|
What harm is it now to try
|
If your to morrn my Bride.

|
To do the Deel knows what

Well thou hast won my Heart,
|
Thy Virtues fire me
|
Ile wed and never part
|
As you require me
|
Soft murmurs and Sighs shall prove
|
What Joys you render me
|
O Kiss thenand surfeit one Love
|
Faith ise not angry be.
