COme sweet Lass, This bonny weather, Let's together; Come sweet Lass Let's trip it on the Grass: Every-where Poor Jockey seeks his Dear, And unless you appear, He sees no Beauty here. On our green The Loons are sporting, Piping, courting, On our green The blythest Lads are seen; There all day Our Lasses dance and play, And every one is gay, But I when your away. How can I Have any pleasure, While my Treasure Is not by? The rural harmony I'se not mind, But Captive like confin'd I'se lig in shades behind, Cause Moggy proves unkind: There is none That can delight me, If you slight me, All alone I'se ever make my moan; Life's a pain Since by your coy disdain, Like an unhappy Swain, I sigh and weep in vain. I could be Right blith and jolly, Melancholly N'er should be My fatal destiny, If I might But have my Love in sight, Whose Angel-beauty bright Was ever my delight. Have I not, In Moggy's Dances,
Seen those glances, Which was shot, And, like a Fowler, cot My poor Heart; Yes, and I feel the smart Of Cupid's fatal dart, Since we have been apart Jemmy can With pretty Nancy Have his fany; Jemmy can, Tho' not so blith a Man, Have his will, Kiss and enjoy her still, While I on each green hill, Weep and lament my fill. I'll not wear The reath of willow, Floramilla Charming fair Shall ease me of my care; Who can tell, But she may please as well? No longer will I dwell In Love's tormenting cell. Moggey's Answer to Jocky. To the same Tune. JOckey pray Forbear your passion, And vexation; Lasses may With Loons be blith and gay: N'ertheless The height of happiness My Jockey shall possess; Then weep not to excess. On the green. In joy and pleasure, Out of measure, On the green My Jockey shall be seen Blest with love, For I will ever prove Like to the turtle-dove, By all the Powers above.
