7 couple they're married, and live very happy, one another with pleasures so canty, The rocks they shall melt, And the mountains shall remove, ever I prove false to the woman I love.

Both ſexes give ear unto my fancy. While in praiſe dear women I ſing, Confin’d not to Moll, Kate or Nancy, But make, from the Beggar to King.

Old Adam when firſt was created, And Lord of the Univerſe crown’d; In happineſs was not compleated Until that a Help-mate he found.

He’d all things for food that was wanting, Which makes us content thro' our lives; He’d horſes and foxes for hunting, That ſome men love more than their wives,

He’d a garden ſo planted by nature, Men cannot produce in this life; But ſtill the all-wiſe , Saw that he wanted a wife.

Then Adam was laid in a ſlumber, And then he loſt part of his ſide, And when he awoke, he with wonder Beheld his moſt beautiful bride.
