Songs Compleat^
OH ! how you protest and solemnly swear,
Look humble, and fawn like an Ass ;
I'm pleas'd, I must own, when ever I see
A Lover that's brought to this pass.
Keep, keep further off, you're naughty I fear,
I vow I will never, will never, will never yield to't ;
You ask me in vain ; for never I swear,
I never, no never, I never, no never,
I never, no never will do't.
For when the Deed's done, how quickly you go,
No more of the Lover remains,
In hast you depart, whate'er we can do,
And stubbornly throw off your Chains :
Desist then in time, let's hear on't no more,
I vow I will never yield to't ;
You promise in vain, in vain you adore,
For I will never, no never will do't.
Jockey's Lamentation.
