The Lascivious Lover and the Coy Lass
Anonymous(From Pills to Purge Melancholy, 1707) |
PISH, fye, you’re rude, Sir, | |
I never saw such idle fooling; | |
You’re grown so lewd, Sir; | |
So debauched I hate your ways; | |
Leave, what are you doing? | 5 |
I see you seek my ruin, | |
I’ll cry out, pray make no delay, | |
But take your Hand away; | |
Ah! good Sir, pray Sir, don’t you do so, | |
Never was I thus abused so, | 10 |
By any Man, but you alone, | |
Therefore, Sir, pray begone. | |
