A Song in Praise of the Leather Bottel Shewing how Glasses and Pots are laid aside And Flaggons and Noggins they cannot abide And let all Wives do what they can 'T is for the Praise and Vse of Man And this you may very well besure The Leather Bottel will longest endure And I wish in Heaven his Soul may dwell That first devised the Leather Bottel To the Tune of The Bottel-maker's Delight c. GOd above that made all things The Heavens the Earth and all therein The Ships that on the Sea do swim To keep the Enemies out that none comes in And let them all do what they can 'T is for the Use and Praise of Man And I wish in Heaven is Soul may dwell That first devised the Leather Bottel Then what do you say to those Cans of Wood In faith they are and cannot be good For when a Man he doth them send To be filled with Ale as he doth intend The Bearer falleth down by the way And on the ground the Liquor doth lay And then the Bearer begins to ban And swoars it is long of the Wooden Can But had it been in a Leather Bottel Although he had fallen yet all had been well And I wish c. Then what do you say to those Glasses fine Yes they shall have no Praise of mine For when a Company they are set For to be merry as we are met Then if you chance to touch the Brim Down falls the Liquor and all therein If your Table-cloath be never so fine There lies your Beer Ale or Wine It may be for a small Abuse A young Man may his Service lose But had it been in a Leather Bottel And the Stopple in then all had been well And I wish c. Then what do you say to these black Pots three True they shall have no Praise of me For when a Man and his Wife falls at Strife As many have done I know in their Life They lay their Hands on the Pot both And loath they are to lose their Broath The one doth tug the other doth ill Betwixt them both the Liquor doth spill But they shall answer another Day For casting their Liquor so vainly away But had it been in the Leather Bottel They might have tugg'd till their Hearts did ake And yet their Liquor no harm could take They might have rugg'd till their Hearts did ake Then I wish c. Then what do you say to the Silver Flaggons fine True they shall have no Praise of mine For when a Lord he doth them send To be filled with Wine as he doth intend The Man with the Flaggon he doth run away Because it is Silver most gallant and gay O then the Lord he begins to ban And swears he hath lost both Flaggon and Man There is never a Lord's Serving man or Groom But with his Leather Bottel may come Then I wish c. A Leather Bottel we know is good Far better than Glasses or Cans of Wood For when a Man is at work in the Field Your Glasses and Pots no Comfort will yield Then a good Leather Bottle standing him by He may drink always when he is a dty It will revive the Spirits and comfort the Brain Wherefore let none this Bottle refrain For I wish c. Also the honest Sith-man too He knew not very well what to do But for his Bottle standing him near That is filled with good Houshold-beer At Dinner he sits him down to eat With good hard Cheese and Bread or Meat Then this Bottle he takes up amain And drinks and sets him down again Saying Good Bottle stand my Friend And hold out till this Day doth end For I wish c. And likewise the Hay-makers they When as they are turning and making their Hay In Summer-weather when as it is warm A good Bottel full then will do them no harm And at Noon-time they sit them down To drink in their Bottles of Ale nut-brown Then the Lads and Lasses begins to tattle What should we do but for this Bottle They could not work if this Bottle were done For the Day 's so hot with heat of the Sun Then I wish c. Also the Leader Lader and the Pitcher The Reaper Hedger and the Ditcher The Binder and the Raker and all About the Bottel's Ears doth fall And if his Liquor be almost gone His Bottel he will part with to none But says My Bottel is but small One Drop I will not part withal You must go drink at some Spring or Well For I will keep my Leather Bottel Then I wish c. Thus you may hear of a Leather Bottel When at it is filled with Liquor full well Though the Substance of it be but small Yet the Name of the thing is all There 's never a Lord Earl or Knight But in a Bottel doth take Delight For when he is hunting of the Deer He often doth wish for a Bottle of Beer Likewise the Man that works at the Wood A Bottel of Beer doth oft do him good Then I wish c. Then when this Bottel doth grow old And will good Liquor no longer hold Our of the Side you may take a Clout Will mend your Shooes when they 'r worn out Else take it and bang it upon a Pin It will serve to put many odd Trifles in As Hinges Awls and Candle-ends For young Beginners must have such things Then I wish in Heaven his Soul may dwell That first devised the Leather Bottel London Printed by and for W. ● and sold by J.
