RUDDIGORE

 And as for bad weather
 We'll brave it together,
And you shall creep under my lee,
My wee!
And you shall creep under my lee!

For you are such a smart little craft—
Such a neat little, sweet little craft,
 Such a bright little, tight little,
 Slight little, light little,
Trim little, prim little craft!

Chorus

For she is such, etc.

Rose.

My hopes will be blighted, I fear,
My dear;
In a month you'll be going to sea,
Quite free,
 And all of my wishes
 You'll throw to the fishes
As though they were never to be;
Poor me!
As though they were never to be.

And I shall be left all alone
To moan,
And weep at your cruel deceit,
Complete;
 While you'll be asserting
 Your freedom by flirting
With every woman you meet,
You cheat—
With every woman you meet!

Though I am such a smart little craft—
Such a neat little, sweet little craft,
 Such a bright little, tight little,
 Slight little, light little,
Trim little, prim little craft!

Chorus

Though she is such, etc.
