| The faithfull woings of two Conntry Lovers. / The Young-man he with carriage bold, / did oft salute the Maiden, / And unto her these words he told, / his heart with love was laden; / And if to him her love she'd grant / he'd do his best indeavour. / To maintain her she should not want, / and he'd forsake her never. / Because he was poor the maid was coy, / and would not have him entertain'd / But at last he became her love and joy, / and much wealth with her he gain'd. | |
