SONG XLIV.

[Fortune is blinde]

1

Fortune is blinde,
And Beauty unkind,
The Devil take'um both!
One is a Witch,
And t'other's a Bitch,
In neither's, Faith, or Troth:
There's hazard, in Hap,
Deceit, in a Lap,
But no fraud in a Brimmer;
If Truth, in the bottom, lye,
Thence to redeem her,
We'le drain a whole Ocean dry.

2

Honour's, a Toy!
For Fooles, a Decoy!
Beset, with Care and Fear;
And that (I wusse)
Kills, many a Pusse,
Before her Clymacht year:
But Freedome, and Mirth,
Create, a new birth;
while, Sack's, the Aqua-vitæ
That vigour, and spirit gives:
67

Liquour Almighty!
Whereby, the poor mortal lives.

3

Let us be Blith
In spight, of death's sythe!
And with a heart and half
Drink to our Friends,
And think of no ends
But keep us sound, and fafe!
While healths, do go round,
No malady's found,
The maw sick, in the morning,
For want, of it's wonted straine,
Is as a warning,
To double it, o're againe.

4

Let us maintain
Our Traffique with Spain
And both the Indies, sleight
Give us their Wines!
Let them keep their mines!
We'le pardon Eighty eight!
There's more certain wealth
Secur'd, from stealth,
In one Pipe of Canary,
Then, in an Unfortunate Isle;
Let us be wary
We do not Our selves beguile!
