Their quality come show to me,
you'll know them by their cleiding;
Dear neighbours then, I'll tell you plain,
you'll find it by their breeding.Fal, &c.

They curse and swear and domineer,
and swear like any randy,
Their morning drink I really think,
is whilky, gin, or brandy.Fal de, &c.

And if they chance to prove with child,
or lose their reputation,
O then sets up a baudy house,
and that’s their occupation.Fal de, &c.

Such bawds and bullies now turn thus,
observe the dismal story,
By hangy’s hands their lives they end,
and that’s call’d Tyburn’s glory.
Fal der ral, der ral lal.


The SWEET TEMPTATION.

SAW ye the nymph whom I adore?
saw ye the goddess of my heart?
And can you bid me love no more?
and can you think I feel no smart?

So many charms around her shine,
who can the sweet temptation fly?
Spite of her scorn, she's so divine,
that I must love her, tho' I die.
