I'll give the gold, I'll give the pearl, If thou would but fancy me my girl; I'll give to the fine clothes to wear, If thou'l conſent to be my dear. I'll give the house I'll give the lands, I'll give thee filler in thy handſ. And all that's mine, fort, ha!! le thing If thou'lt conſent for to be mine It's not your gold will me entice, Nor turn my virtuc into vice Nor yet theſe flaterine lipſ of thine, Shall change this ſettled heart of mine. Now Cupid with his duit, Ne'er yet eculi w.und my ſettle d'heatty My heart's my own. And ſhall be ſo Icmnat lyvetlice no no
