CHARMING YOUNG NANCY.
Some sings of sweet Molly,
some sings of sweet Nelly,
And some calls young Susan
the cause of their pain;
Some love to be jolly,
and some melancholy,
And some love to sing
of the humours of Glen:
But my chiefest fancy
is my dearest Nancy,
In venting my passion
I'll strive to be plain;
For ask no more treasure,
I'll seek no more pleasure,
But thou, my dear Nancy,
if ye were my ain.
For her beauty delights me,
her kindness invites me!
Her matchless behaviour
is free from all stain!
Her carriage is comely,
her language is homely;
Her dress is all dainty,
take it in the main.
