Pleasant and Diver live.
325
NOW my Freedom's regain'd, and by Bacchus I
swear,
All whining dull whimsys of Love I'll cashire :
The Charm's more engaging in Bumpers of Wine,
Then let Chloe be Damn'd, but let this be Divine :
Whilst Youth warms thy Veins, Boy embrace thy full
Glasses,
Damn Cupid and all his poor Proselyte Asses ;
Let this be thy rule Tom, to square out thy Life,
And when Old in a Friend, thou'lt live free from all
Strife,
Only envied by him that is plagu'd with a Wife.
A Scotch Song, the Words by Mr. Peter
Noble, Set by Mr. John Wilford.
