Cor. NOw the maids and the men are making of hay, We have left the dull fools, and are stol'n away; Then Mopsa no more Be coy as before, But let us merrily, merrily play, And kiss, and kiss, the sweet time away. Mop. Why how now, sir clown, how came you so bold? I'd have you to know, I'm not made of that mold. I tell you agen, Maids must kiss no men, No, no; no, no; no kissing at all. I'll not kiss, till I kiss you for good and all. Cor. No, no. Mop. No, no. Cor. Not kiss you at all? Mop. Not kiss, till you kiss me for good and all. Not kiss, etc. Cor. Should you give me a score, not lessen the store, Then bid me chearfully, chearfully kiss, And take, and take my fill of your bliss. Mop. I'll not trust you so far, I know you too well; Should I give you an inch, you'd take a whole ell: Then lord like you rule, and laugh at the fool. No, no, etc. Cor. Nay, but Mopsa, my dear, soft kisses invite, Longing lovers to feast on a greater delight;
Then do not deny, But freely comply; And I will lovingly, lovingly right, My Dear, my Dear, in pleasures of night; Mop. Stand back, master clown, your suit is in vain, I tell you, that I will unspotted remain; For kisses they may Young Damsels betray: Go, go; go, go; go, let me alone; I'll not kiss till you lowfully are my own. Cor. No, no. Mop. No, No. Cor. Not kiss you at all? Mop. Not kiss, till you kiss me for good and all, Not kiss, etc. Cor. Dearest trust me, he cry'd, I will make thee my bride, And love thee faithfully, faithfully too, My heart, my heart, is conquer'd by you. Your disconsolate swain, lies languishing here, Let me kiss thee but once, my dull spirits to chear. Mop. You're a slippery blade, I'll not kiss you she said. Cor. No, no. Mop. No, no. Cor. Not kiss you at all? Mop. Not kiss, till you kiss me for good and all, Not kiss, etc.
