Robin and Kate or A bad husband converted by a good wife in a dialogue betweene Robin and Kate. To the tune of Blew Cap. FArre in the North Countrey as I haue heard tell there lines a blithe couple cau'd Robbin and Kate This Robbin doth loue nappy liquor so well that hée 'll be at th'Alehouse both early and late The wife to her husband i' th morning doth say I prethée swéet Robin at home with me stay Thou wastest thy time and spendest thy chinke Turne backe agen Robin and ga not to drinke Man I prethee swéet honey be patient and quiet I 'me sure thou want'st nothing that 's fit for thy state Thou lackst neither money apparell nor diet if any thou dost doe but speake and thou 'st ha'te Thou hast all the good that a wife can desire Tha 'st seruants to ' tend thée and I pay their hire Then for my good-fellowship doe not thou prate For I must and I will have my humour sweet Kate. Wife T is chiefly thy company that I doe want besides though we now haue sufficient to liue Yet if thou the Alehoule thus dayly doe haunt we may become fitter to take than to giue Swéet husband consider and take my aduice Let not thy companions thus lewdly intice Thy heart from thy Kate but vpon my words thinke Turne back agen Robin and ga not to drinke Out out hold thy twattle and doe not thus preach I le not be ruld by thée whateuer thou say Séeke not by perswastons my minde to ouer-reach for I le to the Ale-house as fast as I may If thither thou follow thou welcome shalt be So thou wilt be quiet and pleasant with me Stay here or ga with me t is both of a rate But I must and I will have my humour sweet Kate. Wife Waes me bonny Robin that ere I was marrids vnto sike a husband that séekes my vndoing I wou'd with my mother at home I had tarryde or thought vpon this when thou first cam'st a wooing I thinke in my conscience and I haue cause why That thou lou'st some other farre better than I Thou hat'st to stay with me then what may I thinke Turne back agen Robin and ga not to drinke Man Nay now I finde Kate whereabout thy shooe wrings by this I perceiue that of me thou art iealous But I for my part neuer dreame of sike things I séek not for wenches but honest good fellowes A pipe of Tabacco a Pot or a Iugg These are the swéet honies that I kisse and hugg All wenching delights are with me out of date But I must and I will have my humour sweet Kate. The second part To the same tune Wife I Prethée my ioy doe not take at the worst the words that I speake in the heat of affection No euill conceit in my bosome is nurst I de haue thee be rul'd by my louing direction It thinke thou art honest to me in thy heart But company ill may draw thee apart To wastefull expences thy minde doe not linke Turne back agen Robin and ga not to drinke Man Gude wife be perswaded and let me alone forall thy vaine prattle will proue but mere folly I tell thee my heart will be cold as a stone if I stay at home I shall be melancholy I le make my selfe merry as long as I 'ue store Tush Kate neuer thinke on 't wee'st neuer be poore Shall I stay at home on thy fancy to waite No I must and I will have my humor sweet Kate. Wife Why Robin when first thou didst marry with me thou thoughtst thy self best whē thou ●●…idst with me lōgest How comes the case thus to be alter'd with thée true loue by much usage will grow to be strongest But now thou art weary of my company And canst not be merry I prethée Loue why Thou giu'st me occasion strange matters to thinke Turne backe agen Robin and ga not to drinck Man Oh who wou'd be troubled thus with a foole I prethée swéet-heart take one word for thy learning I scorne that my wife ouer me should beare rule why Kate doe I sp●nd any thing of thy earning I loue thée as well as I did the first day And yet when I list I will goe or I le stay To be at command of my wife I doe hate For I must and I will haue my humor sweet Kate. Wife Alas my deare Lui● thou mistakest me much I doe not command thee that 's not my intention For my humble duty vnto thee is such that one word of anger to thée I le not mention Examine thy heart and thou shalt vnderstand I giue thee good counsell I doe not command Then with due discretion vpon my words thinke Turne backe agen Robin and ga not to drinke Man Ah now my sweet Kate I perceiue very well thy words doe procéed from a hearty affection Now all my delight in thy bosome shall dwell I le euer be orderd by thy direction My former ill husbandry I will repent And in thy swéet company rest well content Strong Liquor no more shall impaire my estate Now I le stay at home with my bonny sweet Kate.
