ANdrew, Maudlin, Rebecka, and Will, pretty pegg with Joseph and Mary, Peter the Plummer and Miles of the Mill, Bess of the Buttery and Doll of the Dairy; They went and gathered young Primroses, To make them sundry sorts of posies. William put on his Holiday jacket, Grissel put in her Russet Gray, Meg had a Ribbon hung down to her placket, and so they went gingling all the way: To solace their Lives and sweeten their labour, They met on a green with a pipe and a tabour. Frinkham Frankham is a fine dance, young Tib did trip it on her toes, And Joan came into the place by chance, whose cheeks were like the Crimson Rose They coupled themselves like birds of a feather, And footed it finely altogether.
Jane began to justle with Thomas, Humphrey thought to find her there; Yet Nelly forsooth did fail in her promise, be cause she did not like his ware. Tis a dainty thing to handle a Baby, And Joan in the dark is as good as my Lady Kester took Hester by the hand, come play us a tune thou trusty trout, A match quoth Roger and if it doth stand, and so they jumbled round a bout: With salingers round, and the French Canaries That passed Jack pudding and all his fegaries. Ralph got Rachel about the middle, and Simon sucked up all the Eggs, phillip did with play his Bag-pipe and Fiddle, while jumping Joan did shake her Legs: Her apron was white and her petticoat red, And they were most sweetly brought to bed.
<seg n="1" rend="left"><hi rend="italic">The second Part, to the same Tune.</hi></seg>
PAul the Peddler is a boon blade, and the Broom-man is another, For they belong to the tribe of Gad, and learn'd this action of their Mother: Tom Tinkers ware is special mettle, And Denis did smile like a firmery Kettle. Richards feather will never leave wagging, James and Nan into the Colehole are gotten, And simple Nick will never leave braging, because his father is dead and rotten: When Jack from Mary her portion hath got, Tis need that makes the old wife trot. Robins nose will never leave droping, hang up sorrow cast away care, And Cupid catch'd young Sarah naping, as Moss by chance did catch his Mare: Her apron is too short before, Which made poor Margery cry full sore.
Old Smell smock Sam delights to vow, for love will creep where it cant go, Neds Nose will serve for a poor mans Saw, and Kate did tread wupon his toe: Young men do love to be with Maids, And Gillian was like the Queen of Spaids, Clem the Carrier is come home, and brought to town good fish and mustard, pricsilla did dance a Jig with Tom, which made his buttocks quake like a Custard With cliping and kissing and kind embraces, The young-men tumbl'd about with their Lasses. Jockey and Jenny with Arthur of Bradly, Roger of Coverly and his consort, Did trick and trim it wonderfully madly, and so they concluded and ended their sport: The Horse can trot and the Mare can amble. And so I end my Country Ramble.
