Song 15.
[would ye be a man of fame]
would ye be a man of fameand rise to courtly station
then be a pimp the noble name
will aid your elevation
soldiers may fight & Gamblers bite
and poets write their sence out
But pimps with ease their patrons can please
and best can make the pence out
Then fa a dri didle
Still at our devotion
if from our Grace youd hope a place
by pimping comes promotion
