THE / Fair MAID of Islington: / OR, THE / London Vintner Over=reach'd. / This is a pritty FANCY if you mind, / He thought to fool her, since she was so kind; / But she was crafty, and resolv'd to fit him, / And in the end it prov'd she did Out-wit him; / She for her CELLER made him pay her Rent, / As by a Wile, which made him to repent. | |
