UPon a time it chanced so, abroad as I did walk, So secretly, they did not know, I hard two Lovers talk: The one a pretty handsome Youth, the other a proper Maid, After a salute, they did dispute, beset with cupid's aid. With Kisses and with Complements, he did this Maiden greet, And courteously he did reply, O gallant Lady sweet. A match sweet Lady I would make, before from hence I go, If thou with me a part will take, to shoot in the Bugle-bow. Alas good sir you are deceiv'd, no part with you i'le be, I am to young, ond skill have none in any Archery.
Nor never had in all my life, the truth of all is so, Nor dare I not for fear of strife, to shoot in the Bugle-bow. Lady, I pray you be content, plead not your tender age, The Birds do sing in merriment, though pin'd up in a Cage. My love to you, I vow is true, though none thereof do know, Do not deny, this courtesie, to shoot in the Bugle-bow. Good sir, I thank you for your love which you do bear to me; But yet I further mean to prove, e're I a part will be: For why, much danger follow may, for ought that I do know, If I should yeild to you this day, to shoot in the Bugle-bow.
FAir Lady, I know no danger that can to it belong; You know I am no stranger, then why should you fear wrong? O yield I pray, make no delay, but now some favour show; My part now take, for true-love sake, to shoot in the bugle-bow. But when this Damosel she did hear, her sweet-hearts kind reply, No longer she could then forbear his loving courtesie. Sweet-heart, said she, a part i[']le be, ere I from you do go; Ile draw the string, and fear nothing to shoot in the bugle-bow. This Maid bent up her noble Bow, and strongly drew the String, Her Game it then so well did go, it made her for to sing. But yet the young-man plaid his part for he three for one did go, But lost the Game, yet nere the worse to shoot in the bugle-bow. But when this Game it ended was, this Damsel did reply: Good sir, you see this Game is lost, you can it not deny.
Therefore I say if you will play once more before you go, Your part ile take, and not forsake, to shoot in the bugle-bow. That Match sweet-heart, it pleaseth me I will not it deny; I see thy skill in Archery, thou willing art to try. Therefo[r]e let's to it once again, our Archery to show, Thy part i'le take, and not forsake to shoot in the bugle-bow. But when the game it ended was, together this couple went, Amends this Damosel for to make, it was his full intent: And he married her most willingly, for fear of further woe: His part she did take, and not forsake, to shoot in the bugle-bow. So to conclude you Maidens fair that now do hear this Song, These Lines I have dedicated here, I hope will do no wrong; For they were write in merriment, as well you all may know, Of a Maid that willingly was bent, to shoot in the bugle-bow.
