S I was a-walking

all in the month of May,

And throush the bars of Smithfield,

I met a Lady gay:

She took me by the hand, and

ſhe call'd me by my name,

She ſaid, ſhe knew my parents,

and the place from whence I came.

Fall the day, fall the day,

Fall the day, fall the day,

Right fall the day, fall the day.

She took me by the hand, and

ſhe gave to me a kiſs;

Come judge you all young people,

what harm was there in this?

For it was from this loving kiſs,

I no longer could refrain;

For I laid her on the green graſs

and kiſſed her again. Fall, &c.

She took me to a tavern

and liquor for to call,

Two rabbits we had roaſted,

and dainty ſauce withal;

Two rabbits we had roaſted,

with good and dainty cheer,
