1. AS I was upon the way, a Lady by me did go; I asked her what time of day, her answer to me was no. 2. Concluding she did not hear, I ask'd her how far to Bow; Instead of saying far or near, her answer to me was no. 3. Her humour methought was strange I wou'd not be baffled so; Madam will you a Kiss exchange? her answer it still was no. 4. She smil'd as she spoke to me, or else my Cake had been Dough; Will you said I, then angry be, her answer it still was no. 5. Encourag'd by this Reply, I on with my Tail did go; Won't you refuse my Company? her answer it still was no. 6. Thus I discover'd the way; her humour better to know; Will you Loves precepts disobey? her answer it still was no. 7. I offer'd her thewn my hand, she took it with pleasing show; Will you a Lovers wish withstand? her answer it still was no.
8. If I shou'd a Favour crave, you wou'd not offended grow; Or shall I not your Anger have, her answer it still was no. 9. Won't you be averse that we, together shou'd walk to Bow; Or sit a while beneath yon Tree? her answer it still was no. 10. The Tree was nearest by much, and thither we chose to go; Will you your sweet embraces grutch her answer to me was no. 11. I tumbl'd her gently down, and pleas'd her fancy I trow; For she gave me full twenty pou, her answer no more was no. 12. I rally'd my Forces then, and bravely attacqu'd my Froe; She swore I was the best of men, her answer no more was no. 13. I askt her House and Name, which no Body here shall know; She frankly did declare the same, her answer no more was no. 14. We oft repeated our sport, we were not Idle or slow; What e're I beg'd of her in short, her answer no more was no.
