True Love Requited, or, The Bayliff's Daughter of Islington.
The young man's friends the maid did scorn,
Cause she was poor, and left forlorn;
They sent the esquire to London fair,
To be an apprentice seven year.
And when he out on 's time was come,
He met his love, a going home,
And then, to end all further strife,
He took the maid to be his wife.
To a North Countrey Tune, or, I have a
good old mother at home. |
