Ꮪ YLVIA, sweet as morning air, Do not drive me to despair: Long have I sighed in vain, Now I am come again: Will you be mine or no, no-a-no,— Will you be mine or no? For of your courting you'll reap no fruit. I would rather give a crown Than be married to a clown; Go for a booby, go, no-a-no,- HERE was a little boy and a little girl TH Lived in an alley; Says the little boy to the little girl, "Shall I, oh! shall I?" Says the little girl to the little boy, Says the little boy to the little girl, WH HEN I was a bachelor I lived by myself, And all the meat I got I put upon a shelf; The rats and the mice did lead me such a life That I went to London to get myself a wife. The streets were so broad and the lanes were so narrow, I could not get my wife home without a wheel barrow; The wheelbarrow broke, my wife got a fall, Down tumbled wheelbarrow, little wife, and all. S Greengrocer & parish clerk LLB S Tommy Snooks and Bessy Brooks Were walking out one Sunday, Says Tommy Snooks to Bessy Brooks, "To-morrow will be Monday." H, madam, I will give you the keys of OH Canterbury, To set all the bells ringing when we shall be merry, If you will but walk abroad with me, If you will but walk with me. Sir, I'll not accept of the keys of Canterbury, To set all the bells ringing when we shall be merry; Neither will I walk abroad with thee, Neither will I talk with thee! Oh, madam, I will give you a fine carved comb, To comb out your ringlets when I am from If home, you will but walk with me, &c. Sir, I'll not accept, &c. Oh, madam, I will give you a pair of shoes of cork, One made in London, the other made in York, If you will but walk with me, &c. Sir, I'll not accept, &c. |
