| JOANS Victory / Over her Fellow-Servants. / A Young-man that with many Maids does dwell, / Thought Joan the rest in beauty did excel; / Mall was too coy, Jenny was too bold, / Kate was too stale, and Nanny was a scold: / That he dislikes them all, and would with none / Be pleas'd, but with his fair and dearest Joan. | |
