G Ood People all I pray draw nigh, while I this Ditty do make plain; This is indeed a Hue-and-Cry after a Loss which I sustain, One Night as I was laid in Bed, there I did lose my Maiden-head. In London City did I dwell, and likewise at the Tavern too, There this unhappy Chance befell, which makes my very Heart to rue; All Comforts they are from me fled, for I have lost my Maiden-head.
Believe me, for I speak the Truth. one of my honest Masters Men, A pretty dapper sweet-fac'd Youth, was us'd to kiss me, now and then; And at the length stole to my Bed, and there I lost my Maiden-head. He evermore did speak my Praise, and likewise kist me e'ery day; He had such pretty winning ways, no Lass alive could say him nay: But now those pleasant Joys are fled, and I have lost my Maiden-head.
But ah! one night amongst the rest, this young-man to my Chamber came, And there himself he soon undrest, alas! I could not blush for shame; But streight he tumbled into Bed, and robb'd me of my Maiden-head. I softly said, why do you so? he streightways talk'd of pleasant Joys, I might have call'd for help I know; but loth I was to make a noise: And now all joys are from me flad, for I have lost my Maiden-head. To speak the truth, I seem to lye, my very heart did quake for fear, But yet he made more noise than I, at length my Mistress she did hear, Who 'rose, and streight approach'd my Bed, but first I'd lost my Maiden-head. Out at the Feet he streight did creep this Youth my Mistress did not see, And I lay close, as if asleep; but 'sakes she soon awaken'd me: Too late she did approach my Bed, for I had lost my Maiden-head.
Upon the Floar his Breeches lay my Mistress said, How came these here? Alas! I knew not what to say, but trembl'd then, and quak'd for fear; My Cheeks then blush'd like Scarlet red, for I had lost my Maiden head. Next Morning when I did arise, my Mistress I was call'd before, While Tears was flowing from my Eyes, she took and turn'd me out of Door: Thus I by Folly was misled. in losing of my Maiden-head. Some Youth that hears me thus complain, if he this Comfort can afford, To bring my Maiden head again, five Shillings shall be his Reward: For time to come I'll wiser be, and keep my Maiden-head , said she. FINIS.
