Daughter I say, I will take any course so thou wilt leave thy passion; indeed it hurts thee child, I'll sing and be merry, wear as fine clothes, and as delicate dressings as thou wilt have me, so thou wilt pacify thyself, and be at peace with me. O will yon so, in so doing I may chance to look upon you. Is this a fit habit for a handsome young Gentlewoman's mother, as I hope to be a Lady, you look like one o'the Scottish wayward sisters, O my heart has got the hickup, and all looks green about me, a merry song now mother, and thou shalt be my white girl. Ha, ha, ha! she's overcome with joy at my conversion. She is most evidently bewitched. There was a deft Lad and a Lass fell in love, with a fa la la, fa la la, Langtidowne dilly; With kissing and toying this Maiden did prove, with a fa la la, fa la la, Langtidowne dilly; So wide i'th' waist, and her Belly so high, That unto her mother the Maiden did cry, O Langtidowne dilly, O Langtidowne dilly, fa la la Langtidowne, Langtidowne dilly. Thus wooden ye done and I were dead, but while I live yoeu fadge not on it, is this awe the work ye confine? Now comes the Maid to set her Mistresses to work. Nay prithee sweet Parnell, I was but chiding the old wife for her unhandsomeness, and would have been at my work presently, she tells me now she will wear fine things, and I shall dress her head as I list. Here's a house well governed? Dress me no dressings, lessen I dress ye beth, and learn a new lesson with a wainon right now, han I been a servant here this half dozen o'yeares, and con I fee ye idler than myself! Nay prithee sweet Parnell content, & hark thee— I have known this, and till very lately, as well governed a Family as the Country yields, and now what a nest of several humours it is grown, and all devilish ones, sure all the Witches in the Country, have their hands in this homespun medley; and there be no few 'tis thought. Yie, yeah, ye shall ye shall, another time, but not naw I thank ye, ye shall as soon piss and paddle in't, as slap me in the mouth with an awd Petticoat, or a new pair o shoine, to be whyet, I cannot be whyet, nor I wonot be whyet, to see sicky doings I. Hold thy prattle Parnell, awes comed about as ween a had it, wotst thou what Parnell? wotst thou what? o dear, wotst thou what? What's the fond wexen wailed trow I. We han been in love these three years, and ever we had not enough, now is it comed about that our love shall be at an end for ever, and a day, for we must wed may honey, we must wed.
