With my Strings of small Wire lo I come,
And a Cittern made of Wood ;
And a Song altho* you are Deaf and Dumb,
May be heard and understood.

Oh ! take Pity on me, my Dear,
Me thy Slave, and me thy Vassal,
And be not Cruel, as it were,
Like to some strong and well built old Castle.

Lest as thou passest along the Street,
Braver every Day and braver ;
Every one that does thee meet,
Will say there goes a Woman-shaver.
