- (continued from previous page)To prove your overthrow.
Fair maiden as I'm a novice
In those natural engagements
Existing since creation
Between youths of our source
I will avoid all flattery
Or any misdemeenour
For love is operating
And I'm longing for sport
She sighed and cast a glance at me
And next moment she was gone from me
She muttered out, "its vanity"
Ye all lead one course".
What a pity, gentle readers (listeners).
That she was not more fond of me
And now that I'm forsaken
I mean to sing no more.
End.
