[Now for the pots with handles three]
Now for the pots with handles three,Faith, then shall have no praise of me,
When a man and his wife do fall at strife,
(As many, I fear, have done in their life,)
They lay their hands upon the pot both,
And break the same, though they were loth;
Which they shall answer another day,
For casting their liquor so vainly away:
But had it been in a bottle filled,
The one might have tugged, the other have held;
Then both might have tugged till their hearts did ake,
And yet no harm the bottle would take.
And I wish in heaven, &c.
