M. WEll met faire Maid, my chiefest joy. W. Alas blinde foole, deceived art thou. M. I prethee sweet Peg be not so coy. W. I scorne to fancy such a Cow. M. Thy beauty sweet Peg, hath won my heart. W. For shame leave off thy flattery. M. From thee I never meane to part. W. Good lacke how thou canst cog and lie! M. For Peggies love poore Kit will dye. W. In faith what colour then shall it be? M. In time my constant heart will try. W. Then pluck it out, that I may see.
M. My life I will spend to doe thee good: W. Alas good sir, that shall not need. M. For thee I will not spare my blood. W. God send your Goslings well to speed. M. Yet faine would I be thy wedded mate. W. Alas good sir I am already sped. M. What lucke had I to come so late? W. Because thou broughtst a calfe from bed. M. O pitty me, sweet Peg I thee pray. W. So I have done long time God wot. M. Why dost thou then my love denay? W. Because I see thou art a sot.

M. WHy Ich have wealth and treasure store. W. And wit as small, as small may be. M. A chaine of Gold I might have worne. W. A Cocks-combe fitter had it beene for thee. M. Thou lovst the Miller of the Glen. W. What if I doe, what is that to thee? M. I will bang the Millers love from him. And therefore wend, and gang with me. W. Great boast small roast such brags will make: But if Tom Miller he were nie, He would bang thee well for Peggies sake, And like a Puppy make thee cry. M. Yet kisse me now for my good will, And if my life thou meanst to save.
W. To give a kisse, I thinke it best, To rid me from a prating knave. Be packing hence you Rusticke clowne. M. No haste but good I hope there be. W. Take heed lest that I cracke your crowne For bussing Pegge so sawcily. M. Nay in friendly sort now let us part, I pray thee sweet Love so let it be. W. Adue kind Kit with all my heart, I am glad I am rid of thy company. M. All you young men take heed by me, That unto women set your minde. See that your Lovers constant be, Lest you be served in like kinde.
