 Many nymphs have been betray'd;
 * thro' want of calm reflection:

Then don't my piece of mind invade,
 * with love and ſweet affection.

Dear maid, I cry'd, miſtruſt me not,
 * in wedlock's bands let's join,

My kids, my kine, my herds, my goats,
 * my ſoul itſelf is thine:

To church he led the blooming fair,
 * for Hymen's ſoft protection,

And now life's deareſt joys we ſhare,
 * with love and ſweet affection.
