THere was a young man in his prime, that lately would be wed, And at the last with much ado, his purpose he had sped. For he had got a bonny lass, to board and eke to bed, And with hey ho the Marigold, hey derry derry derry derry down. At night when they should go to bed, the cloaths they did unfold, They went into their naked beds, and might do what they would. He sought alas, but could not find out his wifes Marigold. And with, etc. He sought it high, he sought it low, and also round about, And yet he could not find it, within the bed nor out. Which made this silly young-man, most greatly stand in doubt, That his wife had never a Marigold, etc. Betimes in the morning, for a Taylor he did send, And eke desir'd his counsel, for he took him for his friend.
My wife, quoth he, is lame alas, the fault now you must mend, For she hath, etc. Therefore kind Taylor now, quoth he, if thou wilt undertake, A brave new fashion Marigold, for my young wife to make. Ile give thee forty shillings, to spend even for my sake. And with, etc. But when the nimble Taylor, the money did behold, And that the forty shillings, into his hand was told, He undertook forthwith to make a famous Marigold. And with, etc. With that the young man gave him full twenty shillings more, To buy brave silks and trimmings to make it fine before, For that's the onely fashion, which nowadays is wore. And with hey ho the Marigold, hey derry derry derry derry down,
THen said the nimble Taylor, since we are now together, Pray let your wife go home with me, that I may take right measure. And i'le make her a Marigold shall do you lasting pleasure. And with hey ho the Marigold, hey derry derry derry derry down. To this the bonny Bridegroom, did quickly give consent, And so away the Taylor with the young woman went, To his own house whereas 'tis thought he did her well content. With hey, etc. He brought her to his chamber, and upon the bed her laid, And with his piercing Bodkin then, he drove a subtile trade. In less then half an hour, the Marigold was made. And with, etc. When he had done the practice, he brought her back again, Unto her loving husband, who did her entertain.
He kist his wife and then he thankt, the Taylor for his pain. And with, etc. That night they lay together, the good man and his wife, And merrily they concluded their former care and strife. For he was never pleas'd so well, before in all his life, As when he found her Marigold. About a fortnight after that, this woman was in pain, It seems her pritty Marigold was out of frame again. To go unto the Taylor she could not refrain, And with, etc. The Taylor he took pains with her to settle all things aright: And as it is reported, he lay with her all night. And on the morrow morning, with joy and much delight, He sent her to her husband, with hey derry derry derry derry down.
