[Hear then the pride & knowledge of a Sailor]
Hear then the pride & knowledge of a SailorHis sprit sail fore sail main sail & his mizen
A poor frail man god wot I know none frailer
I know no greater sinner than John Taylor

[Phebe drest like beauties Queen]
Phebe drest like beauties Queen
Jellicoe in faint peagreen
Sitting all beneath a grot
Where the little lambkins trot
Jellicoe in faint peagreen
Sitting all beneath a grot
Where the little lambkins trot
Maidens dancing loves a sporting
All the country folks a courting
Susan Johnny Bet & Joe
Lightly tripping on a row
All the country folks a courting
Susan Johnny Bet & Joe
Lightly tripping on a row
Happy people who can be
In happiness compard with ye
The Pilgrim with his crook & hat
Sees your happiness compleat
In happiness compard with ye
The Pilgrim with his crook & hat
Sees your happiness compleat
