Ast New-Years Day as I was walking Into Bedlam did chance to call Where I beheld a pretty Maiden Who for her true Love did will Make haste and bring my Billy to me Ye Gods of Love pray take my Part G cruel Parents thus to grieve me Alas did You but feel the smart. As I poor Maiden here do suffer For the Man I do anore; Sure he does not love another Or chuse for the lake of Store. Oh prithee Cupid, Why so cruel, HuveHave [sic] You got one Dart to spose To pierce the Heart of my dear Jewel Oh I wish I had him here. But hold, methinks I see him coming Don't You see him in yonder Cloud With a Train of Damosels round him Oh how they do my Billy crowd. Come let me go, I’ll fly unto him And embrace him in my Arms: Oh Father how can You refuse him Sure he has ten thousand Charms. His Balmy Lips how I could kiss them Much sweeter than the Cherry Red
