# John of Badenyon, or, A man in search of a friend/The Happy Shepherd

The HAPPY SHEPHERD.
AS Celia near a fountain lay, her eye-lids clos'd to ſleep, The ſhepherd Damon chanc'd that way, to drive his flock of ſheep.
With awful ſteps he 'pproacht the fair, to view her charining face, Where ev'ry feature wore an air, and every part a grace.
His heart enflam'd with am'rous pain, then wiſht the nymph would wake, But ne'er before was any ſwain, ſo unprepar'd to ſpeak.
As ſlumbering thus fair Celia lay, ſoft wiſhes fill'd her mind, She cry'd, Young Damon come away, for now I will be kind.
Damon embrac'd the lucky hit, he flew into her arms: He took her in the yielding fit, and rifled all her charms.

# John of Badenyon, or, A man in search of a friend/The Young Maid's Praiſe of Her Soldier

The young Maid's praiſe of her Soldier.
LAte on an evening as I was walking, pleaſant ſhady groves drew near, There I heard a loving mother, talking to her daughter dear: Daughter, I would have you marry if it be your true lover's will. No mother dear, I'd rather tarry, for my loving Soldier ſtill.
​Soldiers they're oblig'd to wander, unto foreign parts you know, Where they may get ſtore of money, and, perhaps their fatal blow; Many a diſmal ſtory and letter, they will ſend you from abroad, O my dear daughter take my counſel, take to the flail, lay by the ſword.
Mother dear, could you fancy a farmer, give to me my heart's delight, Yonder he ſtands with his glittering armour, ſhining like the gold ſo bright, They are the men ſure of their money, let them travel where they will; Mother dear it's folly to be talking, I will adore my ſoldier ſtill.
Yonder he ſtands with his glittering armour keeping his way who darecomeon Would you compare a gentleman ſoldier to your country ill-bred clown? Sowr-cream, kail and butter milk, was never made for ſoldiers drink, With them I would freely wander, the world all round about.
Now ſhe is marry'd to a ſoldier, and abroad with him did go, Travelling into foreign countries, dreſt in ſilk from top to toe, ​Now ſhe's return'd, lives at her pleaſure, thouſands of pounds to ſpend at will, My pretty girls take my counſel, reſign your charms to a ſoldier ftill.
# Old Adam the father of us all/Old Adam

OLD ADAM.
BOTH sexes give ear to my fancy, While in praise of dear woman I sing, Confin'd not to Moll, Kate nor Nancy, But makes from the beggar to king.
Old Adam, when first was created, And Lord of the universe crown'd; In happiness was not compleated, Until that a help-mate was found.
He'd all things for food that was wanting, Which gives us content thro' our lives; He'd horses and foxes for hunting, That some men love more than their wives.
He'd a garden so planted by nature, Men cannot produce in this life; But still the alwiſe great Creator, Saw that he wanted a wife.
Then Adam was laid in a slumber, And then he lost part of his side; And when he awoke, he with wonder, Beheld his most beautiful bride.
In transport he gazed upon her, His happiness now was compleat; Then praised the bountiful donor, Who thus had bestow'd him a mate.
She was not ta'en out of his head, Sir, To reign and triumph over man;
​Nor was she ta’en out of his feet, Sir, By man to be trampled upon.
But she was ta’en out of his side, Sir, His partner and equal to be; But as they’re united in one, Sir, The man is the top of the tree.
Then let not the fair be despised By man, as she’s part of himself, For Woman by Adam was praised, More than the whole globe full of wealth.
A Man without Woman’s a beggar, Suppose the whole world he possess'd; But a beggar that’s got a good woman, With more than the world is blest.

# New way of Johnny's grey-breeks (1)/Johnny's Grey-Breeks

JOHNNY’S GREY-BREEKS.
THE smiling Spring again appears, with all the beauties of her strain, Love soon of her arrival hears, and flies to wound the gentle swain.
How gay does nature now appear! the lambkins frisking o’er the plain, Sweet feath'red songsters now we hear, while Jeany seeks her gentle swain.
Ye nymphs now lead me thro’ the groves, thro’ which your streams in silence mourn, There with my Johnny let me rove, till once his fleecy flock return.
Young Johnny he’s my gentle swain, that sweetly pipes along the mead, So soon's his lambkins hear his strain, with eager steps return in speed.
The flocks now all in sportive play, came frisking round the piping swain; But fearful of too long delay, came bleating to the dams again.
’Tis down in yon green myrtle grove, in choir the feath’red songsters sing, And sweet warble through their love, to welcome the returning spring.
# New way of Johnny's grey-breeks (1)/The Mucking of Geordie's Byre

The Mucking of GEORDIE’S BYRE.
AS I went over yon meadow, and in by yon little house end, I stood and I listen’d with pleasure, while Jenny was singing this song.
CHORUS.
It was not my father’s good will, nor yet with my mother’s desire, That ever I fil’d my fingers, with the mucking of Geordie’s byre.
Though the roads were never so dirty, and the day was never so foul, I wad trudge to the midden with Geordie, I lov’d it far better than school.
When done, and our feet we had dighted, we merrily ranted and sang, And thro’ the bull’s buists like young kinnings, where oft-times I struggled and flang.
There into the hay-nouk he caught me, where oft he has cock’d on my wame, I laught and was pleas’d with his actions, but now they’re discover’d with shame.
My brother he calls me a jade, because Geordie with me was so free, My sister she says I’m hood-winked,
​But well do I love my young Geordie, because he’s so cunning and slee, For oft he cock’d on my caul wame, and I was as well pleas’d as he.
Such mirth at the mucking of byres, dear girls take warning by me, Will make you sit sighing and sobbing, when you get Bob on your knee.
# New way of Johnny's grey-breeks (1)/My Jo Janet

MY JO JANET.
SWEET Sir, for your courtesie, when ye come by the Bass then, For the love ye bear to me, buy me a keeking-glass then. Keek into the draw-well, Janet, Janet; And there ye’ll see your bonny sell, My jo Janet.
Keeking in the draw-well clear, what if I shou'd fa' in, Syne, a’ my kin will say and swear, I drown’d my sell for sin. Ha’d the better by the brae, Janet, Janet; Ha’d the better by the brae, My jo Janet.
Good Sir, for your courtesie, coming thro’ Aberdeen then, ​For the love you bear to me, buy me a pair of shoon then. Clout the auld, the new are dear, Janet, Janet; A pair may gain you ha’f a year, My jo Janet.
But what if dancing on the green, and skipping like a mawking, If they shou’d see my clouted shoon, of me they will be tauking. Dance ay laigh and late at e’en, Janet, Janet; Syne a’ their fauts will no be seen, My jo Janet.
Kind Sir, for your courtesie, when ye gae to the cross then, For the love ye bear to me, buy me a pacing horse then, Pace upo’ your spinning-wheel, Janet, Janet: Pace upo’ your spinning-wheel, My jo Janet.
My spinning-wheel is auld and stiff, the rock o’t winna stand, Sir, To keep the temper-pin in tift, employs aft my hand, sir. Make the best o’t that ye can, Janet, Janet; But like it never wale a man,
# New way of Johnny's grey-breeks (1)/Billy's Courtship

BILLY’S COURTSHIP.
SPRING renewing, all things gay, Nature’s dictates all obey, In each creature we may see, The effects of love’s decree, Thus their state, thus their fate, Do not Polly stay too late. Do not Polly, &c.
Look around and see them play, All are wanton while they may, Why should precious time be lost, After summer comes a frost. All pursue Nature's due, Let us, Polly, do so too.
Mark how kind that swain and lass, Yonder sitting on the grass, See how earnestly he sues, While she, blushing, can’t refuse, See yon two, how they woo, Let us, Polly, do so too.
Mark that cloud above the plain, See, it seems to threaten rain; Herds and flocks do run together. Seeking shelter from the weather, Fear not you, I'll be true, Therefore let us do so too, Therefore let us do so too.
# New way of Johnny's grey-breeks (1)/The Answer

THE ANSWER.
BILLY though you me invite, And say Spring gives such delight, In each creature I can see That I must not be too free, Lest it should be my hard fate, To repent when ’tis too late. To repent, &c.
I can look and see them play, But I shall not go astray, Nor shall precious time be lost, For that is wholsomer than frost, Tie the knot and then we’ll coo, Billy, then we’ll do so too.
But I can see the swain and lass, Yonder sitting on the grass, Tho' with flattery he sues, She’s a fool that can't refuse, Tie the knot and then we’ll coo, Billy, then we’ll do so too.
I’ve mark’d that cloud upon the plain, Shews the darkest deeds of man, Herds and flocks do run for fear, When approaching danger’s near, Tie the knot, and then we’ll coo, Billy, then we’ll do so too. Billy, then we’ll do so too.
# New way of Johnny's grey-breeks (1)/A New Song

A NEW SONG.
HOW imperfect is expression, some emotions to impart; When we mean a soft confession, and seek to hide the tender heart. When our bosom’s all complying, with delicious tumults swell, And beat, what broken, faultering, dying, language would, but cannot tell.
Deep confusion’s rosy terror, quite expressive pains my cheek; Ask no more, behold your error, blushes eloquently speak. What though silent is my anguish, or breath’d only to the air, Mark my eyes, and as they languish, read what your's have written there.
O that you could once convince me, once my soul’s strong feelings view, Love has not more fond, believe me, friendship nothing half so true; From you, I am wild, despairing, with you, speechless as I touch; This is all that bear declaring, And perhaps declares too much.

The SHADY GREEN TREE.
AS I was a walking one midſummer morning, down by a ſhady green tree, There did I behold a moſt beautiful virgin, ſitting down under the ſhady green tree.
I ſtept up to her and ſaid my dear jewel, you are the firſt girl that e'er wounded me, You ſhall not want for gold or ſilver, If you will ſet your affection on me.
She ſaid, kind Sir, you are better deſerving, I am a poor girl of low degree, Beſides your parents will be ſcolding, ſo in my ſtation contented I'll be.
Talk not of friends or of any relations, they have no portion for to give me, As I am a young man, and you are a virgin, married to morrow to you I'll be.
​She ſat herſelf down, I ſat myſelf by her, there did I rifle her beautiful charms; With ſweet melting kiſſes, and kindly embraces, we ſlept together in each others arms.
The ſpace of three hours in the green grove, and under the ſhady green tree, And when I awaked I found her no virgin, married to you I never will be.
She ſaid, kind Sir, you are my undoing, can you, O can you ſo cruel be? How can I paſs any more for a virgin, ſince you have had your will of me.
Come all pretty maidens, and take warning, never truſt a young man in any degree, When they have enjoy'd the fruit of your garden, then they will leave you, as he has left me.
# Poor man's counsel, or, The married man's guide/Highgate Oath

SIlence, take notice as you’re my ſon, full on your father look, ſir, This is an oath you may take as you run, ſo lay your hand on the horn book, ſir, Hornaby, thornaby, highgate and horns, And money by hook or by crook ſir, Hornaby, thornaby, &c.

To drink to a man when a woman is near, you never ſhould hold to be right, ſir, Nor unleſs 'tis your taſte to drink ſmall for ſtrong beer, or eat brown bread when you can get white, ſir. Mannikin, Cannikin, good meat and drink, are pleaſant at morn, noon, or night, ſir.&c.
​To kiſs with the maid when the miſtreſs is kind, a gentleman ought to be loth, ſir, But if the maid's ⟨faireſt⟩, your oath does not bind, or you may, if you like it, kiſs both, ſir, Kiſs away, both you may, ſweetly ſmack night and day, If you like it, your bound by your oath, ſir.&c.
When you travel to Highgate, take this oath again, and again like a ſound man, and true, ſir, And if you have with you ſome more merry men, be ſure you make them take it too, ſir. Bleſs you, ſon, get you gone, frolick and fun, Old England, and honeſt true blue, ſir. Bleſs you, ſon, &c.

LOndon town is juſt like a barber’s ſhop, but by the lord harry 'tis wondrous big, Then the painted dol and the powder'd fop, and many a blockhead wears a wig. And I tickled each Phyz, with a twiggle & a friz, With a twiggle twiggle twiggle and a frizzel, &c.
A captain of horſe I went for to ſhave, ho damme, ſays he, with a martial frown, My razor I pois'd like a barber brave, I took him by the noſe but he knock'd me down. yet, &c.
Then I went to a lawyer, oh rare ſport! who had a falſe oath that day for to ſwear, By my ſkill ſome trouble I fav'd the court, my hot iron burned the lawyer's earFor, &c.
I next went to dreſs a fine grand miſs, down the lady ſits and her neck ſhe bares, But Cupid or the devil bid me ſnatch a kiſs, ere my iron cool'd I was kick'd down ſtairs. For, &c.
I next went to dreſs an old maid's hair, wrinkled and bald as a ſcalded pig; But as ſhe led the dance down with a ſwimming air, this fine old maiden ſhe drop'd her wig, Tho' &c.
# Poor man's counsel, or, The married man's guide/The Dumb Woman Turn'd Scold

The Dumb WOMAN turn'd Scold.
THere was a bonny blade, Had marry'd a country maid, And ſafely conducted her home, home, home; She was neat in ev'ry part, And ſhe pleas'd him to the heart, But ah! alas! ſhe was dumb, dumb, dumb.
She was bright as the day, And briſk as the May, And as round & as plump as a plumb, plumb, plumb, But ſtill the ſilly ſwain, Could do nothing but complain, Becauſe that his wife ſhe was dumb, dumb, dumb.
She could brew, and ſhe could bake, She could ſew, and ſhe could make, She could ſweep the houſe with a broom, broom, broom, She could waſh, and ſhe could wring, She could do any kind of thing; But ah! alas, ſhe was dumb, dumb, dumb.
To the doctor then he went, For to give himſelf content, And to cure his wife of the mum, mum, mum: O! 'tis the eaſieſt part, That belongs unto my art, For to make a woman ſpeak that is dumb, dumb, dumb.
To the doctor he her brings, And he cuts her chatt'ring ſtrings, And at liberty he ſets her tongue, tongue, tongue, Her tongue began to walk, And ſhe began to talk, As tho' ſhe had never been dumb, dumb, dumb.
Her faculty ſhe tries, And ſhe fill'd the houſe with noiſe, And ⟨ſhe⟩ rattl'd in his ears like a drum, drum, drum, ⟨She⟩ bred a deal of ſtrife, ⟨Made⟩ him ⟨weary⟩ of his life He'd give any thing ſhe was dumb, dumb, dumb.
​To the doctor then he goes, And thus he vents his woes, Oh! doctor you’ve me undone, undone, undone; For my wife ſhe’s turn’d a ſcold, And her tongue can never hold, I’d give any kind of thing ſhe was dumb, dumb, dumb.
When I did undertake To make thy wife to ſpeak, It was a thing eaſily done, done, done, But it’s paſt the art of man, Let him do what e’er he can, For to make a ſcolding wife hold her tongue, tongue, tongue.
# Poor man's counsel, or, The married man's guide/Charming Fellow

CHARMING FELLOW.
LORD! what care I for mam or dad? why let them ſcold and bellow; For while I live I’ll love my lad, he’s ſuch a charming fellow.
The laſt fair day on yonder green, the youth he danc’d ſo well O! So ſpruce a lad was never ſeen, as my ſweet charming fellow.
The fair was over, night was come, the lad was ſomewhat mellow; Says he, my dear, I’ll ſee you home--- I thank’d the charming fellow!
We trudg’d along, the moon ſhone bright, ſays he, my ſweeteſt Nell O! I’ll kiſs you here by this good night, Lord what a charming fellow.
You rogue, ſays I, you’ve ſtopp’d my breath, ye bells ring out my knell O! Again I’d die ſo ſweet a death, with ſuch a charming fellow.
