A Young Man and a Maid
Anonymous(From Pills to Purge Melancholy, 1720) A YOUNG Man and a Maid, put in all, put in all, | |
Together lately played, put in all; | |
The Young Man was in Jest, | |
O the Maid she did protest: | |
She bid him do his best, put in all, put in all. | 5 |
With that her rolling Eyes, put in all, put in all, | |
Turned upward to the Skies, put in all; | |
My Skin is White you see, | |
My Smock above my Knee, | |
What would you more of me, put in all, put in all. | 10 |
I hope my Neck and Breast, put in all, put in all, | |
Lie open to your chest, put in all, | |
The Young Man was in heat, | |
The Maid did soundly Sweat, | |
A little farther get, put in all, put in all. | 15 |
According to her Will, put in all, put in all, | |
This Young Man try’d his Skill, put in all; | |
But the Proverb plain does tell, | |
That use them ne’er so well, | |
For an Inch they’d take an Ell, put in all, put in all. | 20 |
When they had ended sport, put in all, put in all, | |
She found him all too short, put in all; | |
For when he’d done his best, | |
The Maid she did protest, | |
’Twas nothing but a Jest, put in all, put in all. | 25 |
