JUst when the young and blooming Spring had melted down the winter Snow, And in the Grove the Birds did sing their charming Notes on ev'ry Bough: Poor Willy sate bemoaning his fate, and woful state, for loving, loving, loving, and despairing too, alas! he'd cry, that I must dye, for pretty Kate of Edenbrough.
WIlly was late at a Wedding-house, where Lords and Ladies danc'd all arow, But Willy none so pretty a Lass, as bonny Kate of Edenborough; 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 pretty Kate of Edenborough. The God of Love was Willys Friend and cast an eye of pity down, And streight 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 entracn'd in joys, with pretty 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 pretty 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 lover, firm and true; And all his prate is now of late, of pretty Kate of Ededbrough. 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 nearly curl'd; That in his mind he ne'er shall find, since she proves kind, A Lover, Lover, Lover. like his Katy true; And doth express his happiness, in pretty Kate of Edenbrough.
