PRay now attend and listen a while, to a right new and Jocular Song; Which I declare, will cause you to smile, if that I am not much in the wrong: It is of a bonny Glover, I, and his Name I tell ye is John; He Courted young Mary, who was brisk and airy, but Marry'd at length with Foggy-ars'd Nan. While he did Court his amorous Love, what Protestations then did he make! Vowing his mind should never remove, no, he could freely Dye for her sake:
Thus alas! she was deluded, I, and he prov'd a perfect Trappan, When leaving young Mary; who was brisk and airy, to Marry at length with Foggy-ars'd Nan. Morning and Night to Mary he'd go. swearing he lov'd her dearer than life; Thus he the heighth of Kindness did show, as if he meant to make her his Wife: Till at length he did deceive her, like a deceitful false-hearted Man; Yet faith he is fitted, and not to be pitty'd, because he hath taken Foggy-ars'd Nan.
[Mary she said, it would be his Lot, to Marry Nan, in Love to combine; But he declar'd an Earthen Piss-pot, he would despise for Silver more fine: Thus he often did compare her, like a deceitful flattering Man;] Good faith he is fit[ted, and not to be pitty'd,] because he hath taken Foggy-ars'd Nan. Forty good pounds in Silver and Gold, with his Love Mary he might have had; Which was a pleasant sight to behold, was he not then Distracted and Mad? Thus to leave her for another, who is in Debt as much as she can; The Glover is fitted, and not to be pitty'd, now let him make much of Foggy-ars'd Nan. Now she has got him fast in a Nooze, where he till Death a Slave must remain; He for the world now cannot get loose, but must endure the torture and pain: Some says that she will Cornute him, tho' he does watch as much as he can: E'faith he is fitted, and not to be pitty'd, he knows that it is the Humours of Nan. Upon a day it happened so, that a right brisk young Gallant was there, Into the Room Pill-Garlick did go, but to Affront them he did not dare: For a while he did stand peeping, like to a poor disconsolate Man: E'faith he is fitted, and not to be pitty'd, as knowing it is the Humours of Nan. What if we find the Fates have decreed, that he should be a Cuckold by course; And Mary she would not do the Deed, then lusty Nan she must upon force, Give the honest Spark his Fortune, for she alone is able, and can; E'faith he is fitted, and not to be pitty'd, as knowing it is the Humour of Nan.
