A new love-song, and a true love-song. : Made of a young man and a maiden fair, whose dwelling now is in Northamptonshire; as they one evening late abroad was walking, a young man lay unseen, and heard them talking: to make their complements to seem more sweeter, their words and actions he compos'd in metre: 'twas well they honest prov'd in verity, because Tom-tell-truth chanc'd to be so nigh. To the tune of, Collin and Amarillis..
