COld and Raw you can't forget, the Maid that sold the Barley, Who the Scotch-man did Out-wit, one Winters morning early: Then listen now and i'le unfold a third and pleasant Story, Now he beset her for his Gold, but it proved young Rogers Glory. He was Riding to a Fair, with Kate his Masters Daughter, When the Scot did meet them there, but mark what follow'd after:
When as the Scot the Lass espy'd, he Rav'd at her out of measure, Give me my Purse and Gold, he cry'd, you Rob'd me of all my Treasure. Envy was in Jockeys Face, but yet that no ways daunts her, Kate with a most Noble Grace, returns him straight this Answer: I never stole no Purse from you, cou'd I be so much your Master? Be gone and make no more ado, or else I will lay you fasler.
Now to Roger she made known, how often he did woe her, When he met her all alone, in order to undo her: Uds-zooks, quoth Roger, did he so? and wou'd he have wrong'd my honey? Then by my faith, before I go, this Cudgel shall pay the Money. Jockey he had by his side, a true and trusty Rapier, Therefore with his Haughty Pride, at Roger he did vapour: Which did his Spirits so provoke, that anger and blows encreases, His Rapier with a bang he broke, that shiver'd in twenty pieces, Yet stout Roger did not mean of Life once to deprive him, But about the Fair and Green, he like a Stag did drive him: At length he beg'd his pardon there of Katy the Farmers Daughter, It was the Sport of all the Fair, there never was greater Laughter.
By all Men and Women too, stout Roger was commended, Further still their love to shew, the Quarrel being ended, A Rule was made through all the town for Rogers sake to be Merry, And drank his Health in Liquor brown nay, likewise in rich Canary. Then near Night they home wou'd ride and Roan was straight made ready, Horse and Man on e'ry side, as if a Lord and Lady: When coming to her Father dear, said they, he deserves to have her, Now ever since that time, we hear stout Roger is much in Favour. And belov'd at such a rate by Father, Friends, and Mother, That they vow'd he should have Kate, Uds-zooks, above all other; Because he kept her safe from harm, and fear'd neither wind nor weather, And now they keep a worthy Farm, where they lovingly live together.
