COme all Rash Lovers pray draw near, and hear what I shall tell, Of one who lately did despair, and for that cause he fell: He was a Tailor brisk and brave, who lov'd a handsome Maid, And did for speedy Marriage crave, but she the same delaid. Which drove him to such discontent, that he no rest could find, Both Night and Day he did lament, to see his Love unkind; And took the same so much to heart, in silence he did grieve, Such was the force of Cupids Dart, that none could him relieve. Until at last despair and grief united so their Power, His Case was far beyond relief, sad Fate must him devour. For having got a slender Roap on Sunday-morning last, As one being void of future hope, he hang'd himself in hast. In the New-building near the Field, his Body it was found, Where he to fatal death did yield, tho' his feet touch'd the Ground:
Which did amaze all those who see his sad and dismal fate, Because that Loves unkind Decree, had thus cut off his date. About him were some Letters found, Which plainly seem'd to tell, Dispare had on him gain'd such ground, In peace he could not Dwell Likewise he did disire all, Who heard of his sad Fate To take example by his Fall, Before it was too late. His Sweetheart she no sooner hears, This sad and Doleful newes But she with Sorrows Grief and Tears All comfort doth refuse, For her unkindness to her Dear, She doth Lament and Morn, to him she was so severe As her True Love to scorn. Oh! all Young Maid's (quoth she beware How you true Love dispise, Least you like me, bring on dispare, Make Love a sacrifice I freely would give all I have, To bring him back again, But tis too late his Life to save My sighs are all in vain.
London, Printed for John Alkin, 1699.
