A wicked viper whisper'd her,
That I intended to miscarry ;
And said, I'd one was dearer still ;
That soon I'd go and leave my Mary.
O my sweet, &c.
I was denied an intei^viev/
With my sweet charming lovely deary ;
Long has she been parted from me,

But happy I'll be with my deary ;
No envious MTCtch again shall come
Between me and my lovely Mary,
O my sweet, &c. C.
