A SONG.

1.
OH ho boyes, soh ho boyes, Come away boyes, And bring me my longing desire; A Lasse tht is near, And can do the feat, When lusty young blood is on fire.

2.
Let her body be tall, And her wast e but small, And her age not above fifteen; Let her feare for no bed, But let us here spread Our mantle upon the Green.
3.
Let her have a cherry lip, Where I Nectar my sip, Le her eyes e as black as a low; Tangling locks I doe love, So those that hang above Be the same of what's growing below.
4.
Let her face be faire, And her brsts be bare, And voyce let her have that can wable, Let her belly be oft, To mount me aloft, Let her bounding buttocks be of marble, Oh such a bonny lasse May bring wonders to passe, And make me grow younger and younger, And when I dapart, She'l be mad at the heart, That I am able to stand to' no longer.
FINIS.
