I will not come up ſtairs with you,
nor any man indeed,
She ſpoke with as much modeſty,
as if ſhe'd been a maid.
Beſides I am in haſte, Sir,
and thought not to have ſtaid,
Come be as nimble as you can,
I'm but a ſervant maid.
Then he ſtood and viewed her,
his ſkill began to riſe,
He ſpoke ſuch words unto this maid,
which did her quite ſurpriſe.
It is true you are a ſervant,
but ſure you are no maid;
It is time that you were wed my girl,
you have the wanton play'd.
You would have laugh'd to've ſeen her bluſh,
hearing him what he ſaid,
But ſtill ſhe told for anſwer,
that yet ſhe was a maid.
Deny it not, my girl, he ſaid,
and tell me nothing ſo,
For you lay with your maſter,
not many nights ago.
Then ſhe began to curſe and ſwear,
ſhe would her maſter bring,
That he would teſtify for her,
that there was no ſuch thing.
