SONG XXXIV.

Fye nay prethee John
Do not quarel Man,
Let's be Merry and drink about
You'r a Rogue! you cheated me,
I'le prov't before this Company,
I care not a farthing Sr. for all you are so stout:
Sr. you lye I scorn the word,
From any man that wears a sword,
For all you huff I care not a turd,
Or who cares for you?
