HEre is a Summons for all honest Men , belonging to the Hen-peckt Frigat ; And I will tell you the place where and when , both Gravel and Sand for to dig it ; To mend the ways , 't is no idle tale , remember your Foreheads adorning , At Cuckolds-Point you must meet without fail , by seven a Clock in the morning . Shovels and Pit-Axes you must provide , it is but in vain for to cavel , You must bring with you a Basket beside , in order to carry the Gravel That your sweet Wives may walk to the Fair , with Gallants that dotes on their Beauty , See that you do it with diligent care , consider it is but your Duty . Taylors with Turners and Coblers too , also Barbers , ●ipers and Scrapers ; Nay , and besides there 's a notable Crew , a thousand or two of Ale-Drapers : All must appear and patiently wait , while they have receiv'd their Direction , And if our Laws you shall here violate , beware of a Garret-Correction . But if you do it with perfect delight , that Woman that finds you regard her , She to requite you will sure Dub you Knight , and one of the old Forked-Order ; For there was some last Year were made so , and one was kind Robin my Neighbour , This may encourage you freely to go , as knowing you shan't lose your labour . Doing of this you may lead a sweet life , as long as you flourish together ; Can any Man be too kind to his Wife , I pray you now do but consider ? Therefore I pray be sure to attend , and be not of labour too sparing , When they return you will find in the end , They 'l bring you a HORN for a Faring
