“Make ready fair Lady to night,” from Sir Martin Marr-All

He.Make ready fair Lady to night,

And stand at the Door below,

For I will be there

To receive you with Care,

And to your true Love you shall go.

She.And when the Stars twinckle so bright,

Then down to the Door will I creep,

To my Love will I flye,

E’er the jealous can spye,

And leave my old daddy asleep.
