A Cat has a Rump a Cat has nine lives Yet when her heads off her rump never strives But our Rump from the grave hath made two Retrives which c. 8. That the Rump may al their enemies quail They borrow the Devils Coat of Mail And all to defend their Estate in Tail which c. But though their scale now séem to be th'upper There 's no néed of the charge of a Thankgiving supper For if they be the Rump the Army 's their which c. 10. There is a saying belongs to the Rump Crupper which is good although it be worn to the stump That on the Buttock I le give thée a thump which c. 11 There 's a proverb in which the Rump claims a part Which hath in it more of sense than of Art That for all you can do I care not a fart which c. 12.

Time perpetually is changing every moment alteration brings Love and beauty still estranging women are alas but wanton things He that will his Mistriss favor gain must tâ—ke her in a merry vain 3. A womans fancy 's like a Fever or an Ague that doth come by fits Hot and cold but constant never even as the pleasant humor hits Sick and well again and well and sick in love it is a womans trick 4. Now she will and then the will not put her to the tryal if once she smile Silly youth thy fortunes spill not lingring labors oft themselves beguile He that knocks and can't get in his Pick-lock is not worth a pin 5. A womans Nay is no denial silly youths of Love are served so Put her to a further tryal Happily shée 'l take it and say no For it is a trick which women use what they love they will refuse 6.

Though wine be a Juice swéet pleasant and pure This trade doth such pleasure and profit procure That every Vintner in town is turn'd Brewer which no body c. 23. But now let 's leave singing and drink off our Bub Let 's call for a reckoning and every man

A SONG ALL hail to the days that merits more praise Than all the rest of the year And welcome the nights That double delights As well in the Poor as the Péer Good fortune attend Each merry mans friend That doth but the best that he may For getting old wrong With a Cup and a Song To drive the cold Winter away 2. Let Misery pack With a whip at his back To the déep Tantalian flood And Envy propound In Lethe be drown'd That repines at another mans good Let sorrow's expence Be a thousand years hence With payment of grief and delay And spend the whole night With honest delight To drive the cold Winter away An excellent Song I Dote I dote but am a Sot to show it I was a very fool to let her know it For now she doth so cunning grow She proves a friend worse than a foe She 'l neither hold me fast nor let me go For she tells me I cannot forsake her Then straight I endeavor to leave her For to make me to stay Throws a kiss in my way O then I could tarry for ever 2. Then I retire salute and sit down by her Thus do I fry in frost and fréeze in fire Then Nectar from her lips I sup Although I cannot drink all up Yet I am fort with kissing of the Cup For her lips are two brimmers of Claret Where first I began to miscarry Her Breasts of delight Are two Bottles of White And her eyes are two Cups of Canary 3. Drunk as I live dead drunk without repriede And all my secrets drebble through a sieve Vpon my neck her Arms she layeth Then all is Gospel that she saith Which I laid hold on with my fuddled faith For I finde a fond Lover's a drunkard And dangerous is when he flies out With Lips and with Sips Black eyes and white thighs Blind Cupid sure tipled his eyes out 4. She bids me rise tells me I must be wise Like her for she is not in love she cryes Then do I fume and fret and throw Though I be fetter'd to my foe Then I begin to run but cannot go But prithée swéet use me more kindly 'T is better to hold me more fast If you e're disengage The Bird from the Cage Believe me he I leave you at last 5. Like Sot I sit that us'd to fill the town with wiâ— But I confess I have most néed of it I have béen drunk with Duck and Déer Above a quarter of a year Beyond the cure of sléeping or small Béer I think I can number the months too July August September October Thus runs the Account A mischief light on 't Sure I shall go home when I 'm sober 6. My legs are lam'd my courage is quite tamd My heart and body too are much enslam'd Now by â—xperience I can prove And swear by all the Gods above 'T is better to be drunk with wine than Love For Sack makes â—s merry and witty Our foreheads with Iewels adorning Although I do grope Yet there is some hope That I shall be sobeâ— next morning 7 Now with command she throws me from her band And bids me go yet knows I cannot stand I measure all the ground by trips Was ever Sot so drunk with Sips Or ever than so over-séen in Lips I pray Madam Fickle be faithful And leave off your damnable dodging Either love me or leave me And do not deceive me But let me go home to my Lodging 8. I have too much and yet my folly 's such I cannot leave but must have to'ther touch Her es a Health to the King how now I 'm drunk and shall speak treason I vow But Lovers and fools may say any thing you know For I fear I have tired your patience But I 'm sorry 't is I have the worst on 't My wit hath be reft me And all that is left me Is but enough to make a Song on 't My Mistriss and I Shall never comply And that is the short and the long on 't A Pastoral Song betwixt a Shepherd and a Shepherdess Q. DId you not once Lucinda vow you would love none but me A. I but my Mother tells me now I must love wealth not thée Shep. Cruel thy love lies in thy power though Fate to me 's unkinde Maid Consider but how small thy Dower is in respect of mine Shep. Is it because my shéep are poor or that my flocks are few Maid No But I cannot love at all so mean a thing as you Shep. Ah me Ah me mock you may grief Maid I pity thy hard fare Shep. Pity for Love's but poor relief I 'le rather choose your hate Maid Content thy self Shepherd a while I 'le love thée by this Kiss Thou shalt have no more cause to mourn Than thou caust take in this Shep. Bear retord then you Powers above and all those Holy Bands For it appears the truest Love springs not from wealth nor Lands A Cavear TAke héed fair Cloris how you tame With your disdain Amyntas flame A noble heart if once deny'd Swells into such a height of pride 'T will rather burst than deign to be A worshipper of Cruelty 2. You may use common Shepherds so My sighs to storms will quickly grow And set such
