In the morniRg fair and fine,
In the morning early.
There I feed my father's fwine.
There I feed therfi early :
Grunting here, grunting there,
Here a grunt, there a grunt, every- where a grunt,
O ! how free from care and fh'ife
Is a pleafant country life.
A Lovely lafs to a friar came.
To confefs, in a morning early t
In what, my dear, are you to blame ?
Come tell me now Cncerely.
I have done. Sir, what I dare not name, ,;^
With a man that loves me dearly.
The greateft fault in mylelf I know,
Is what I now difcover.
You for that crime to J^ome muft §o#
And difcipiine muft fuffer.
Lack-a-day, Sir, if it muft be (by
Pray with me lend my lover.
Ko, no, my dear, you do but dream,
We'll have no double-dealing;
But if with me yoa'll repeat the lame,
I'll pardon your paft failing.
I muft own, Sir, <^but I blulh for Ihame)
That your penance is prevailing.
AH ! how fweet it Is to love !
Ah 1 how gay is young defirc I
i^nd what plcafing pains we prove,
When lirft we feel a lover's lire !
