305
NAY pish, nay pish, nay pish Sir, what ails you ;
Lord ! What is't you do ?
I ne'er met with one so uncivil as you ;
I You may think as you please, but if Evil it be,
I wou'd have you to know, you're mistaken in me.
You Men now so rude, and so boistrous are grown,
A Woman can't trust her self with you alone :
I cannot but wonder what 'tis that shou'd move ye ;
If you do so again, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear,
I swear I won't love ye.
I llil! in HIM • im Mil MM II 11 M ,m
