Contents
Sometimes I am a tapster new -- Honest shepher'd, since you're poor -- Blowzabella my bouncing doxie -- As oyster nan stood by her tub -- There was a lass of Islington -- Poor Celia once was very fair -- Oh fie! What mean I foolish maid -- What life can compare with the jolly town rakes -- I hate a fop that at his glass -- Would ye have a young virgin of fifteen years -- Weep all ye nymphs, your floods unbind -- A soldier and a sailor, a tinker and a taylor -- Then jockey wou'd a wooing away -- With my strings of small wire lo I come -- How vile are the sordid intrigues of the town -- Like a ring without a finger -- Through the cold shady woods -- When for air I take my mare -- Young Collin, cleaving of a beam -- One Sunday at St. James's prayers -- There was an old woman liv'd under a hill -- Oh! my panting, panting heart -- Now listen a while, and I will tell -- Oh mother, Roger with his kisses -- Do not rumple my top-knot -- Come jug, my honey, let's to bed.
