A Begger got a Beadle, a Beadle got a Yeomen, A Yeoman got a Prentice a Prentice got a Freeman, A Freeman got a Master, a Master got a Lass, On her was got a Gentleman a Justice of the Peace. So twin'd the Wheelband, the well twin'd Wheelband, The like whereof you never heard the twineing of the Wheelband
The Justice he was rich and noble in desire, He married with a Lady, and so begat a Squire, The Squire got a Knight who is Country quite forsook, To travel into France and there begat a Duke. So twin'd the Wheelband, the well twin'd wheelband, The like whereof you never heard, the twineing of the wheelband.
The Duke begat a Prince, the Prince a King of hope, The King begat the Emperor, the Emperor got the Pope. The Pope begat a Fryer, the Fryer begot the Nun, And so you may hear how their Pedigrees begun, a well twin'd wheelband, the like whereof you never heard, But now shall plainly understand, the twineing of this wheelband. The Nun she chanc'd to slumber, and laying bare her Rump, The ball'd pate Fryer bob'd her, and so begat a Monk, The Monk begat a Daughter who could both lye and huff, She married to a Barrister, and quickly got a Ruff. So twin'd etc, The Ruff it took good counsel, good counsel got a Fee, The Fee begot a Serjant, thus runs the Pedigree. The Serjant got a triple cap which a good Lawyer spoil'd, By getting ease and Gout, he once more got a child. So twin's etc. A Dog he got a Bayliff, who Cerbrus like could roar, And dayly hunt about the Town to terrify the poor, The Bayliff got a Turnkey, the Turnkey got a Jaylor, Who hell-hound like do suck the dlood of those the Bums do hail there. So twines etc,
The Jaylor got an under Sheriff, the under got an upper, Who can fright a Country town by shaking of his crupper, He married to a Virgin that was of some renown, And plying on her briskly begot a Scarlet Gown, So twin'd etc. The Gown is got a Merchant who sending Ships to Sea, By bringing o're uncustom'd Goods, grew rich immediately, He strideing of a Boat Swains wife, a brave Lieutenant got, Wo became a Captain by fighting very hot, So twin'd etc, The Captain got a Collonel, the Collonel he was tall, And by leaping trenches became a General The General was eoger in pursuit of fame, And in a little space begat a dreadful name, So twined etc. And thus may you see now how are since Adams time The Pedigrees ran round as the Wheelband did twine, From the lowest to the highest and then back again, In continual motion this Wheelband does remain, So merrily twin'd the wheelband the well twined wheelband, By this you may plainly understand the twineing of this wheelband.
