WIlly was late at a Wedding-house, where Lords & Ladies danc'd all arow But Willy none so pritty a Lass as bonny Kate of Edenbrough; Her bright eyes, with smiling joys, did so surprize, And something, something, something, else that shot him through: Thus Willy lies, entranc'd in joys, with pritty Kate of Edenbrough The God of Love was Willy's Friend, and cast an eye of pitty down And straight a fatal Dart did send, the cruel Virgins heart to wound: Now every Dream is all of him, who still does seem More lovely, lovely, lovely, since the Marriage Vow: Thus Willy lies, entranc'd in joys, with pritty Kate of Edenbrough. Now Willy thinks his happiness, all other Creatures do exceed, His tongue cannot his joys express, since Kate and he are well agreed: Both day and night, her beauty bright, is his delight,
And nothing, nothing, nothing, else can Willy do, But sound her fame, and praise the Name of pritty Kate of Edenbrough. Cupid with his love doth bless, granting him his hearts desire, He doth continually express, how that his heart is all on fire: He feels no pains, amidst his Chains, but still remains A wounded, wounded, wounded love firm and true; And all his prate, is now of late, of pritty Kate of Edenbrough. He swears her eyes are full of Charms, enough to conquer all the world, Her smiles secure him from all harms, her Locks they are so neatly curl'd; That in his mind he ne'r shall find since she proves kind, A Lover, Lover, Lover, like his Katy true; and doth express his happiness, in pritty Kate of Edenbrough.
