(4) To guard thee, my deary. from cold, snow and rain: Then you shall not sit single, but by a good ingle My charming young Nancy, if ye were my ain!

For I’ll work at my calling, to furnish a dwelling With every thing needful, thy life to sustain: Therefore, my dear jewel, do not prove cruel; Consent, my dear Nancy, and come be my ain.

I will have a garden, my charming young maiden, For fresh recreation, to fright away pain; To walk in when weary, to comfort my deary. My charming young Nancy if ye were my ain.

I would make true affection the only direction for loving my Nancy, while life doth remain.
