True Lovers Victory Or the Northern couple agreed . With Sugred words and smiling looks He did so charm her sences , That she did yield unto his Love For all her late pretences . To a rare Northern Tune , or Jennyscog wheel .

A Boney blith Lady in the North Countrey , Whom Cupid had Wounded most craftely He met with his Love and he told her his mind , And thus he did greet her with words so kind , Come sit thee down by me my own sweet joy Thou wilt quite kill me Ff thou prove coy Should'st thou prove coy and not love me , Where shall I find such a one as thee . I have been at Wakes and I have been at Fairs , Yet ne're could I meet one that with thee compares : Far have I travel'd yet never could find ; One I lov'd like thee if thou prove so kind . Thou shalt have a gay Gown of the best , With gay fine Buskins thy feet shall be drest : With Chaplets of Roses thy head shall be crown'd . And thy pinckt Petticoat shall be lac't round . WHen thou art drest in thy Robes so gay , Thou shalt be s●en like the Queen of May : The boney young Lasses that lives by thee , Shall all take delight in thy company . We will go early to the brook side , And catch Fishes as they do glide Every little Fish thy Prisoner shall be Thou shalt catch them and i 'le catch thee . The Birds in the Grove shall come at thy beck , And from thy Lilly white hands they shall peck : And whilst with their Notes about thée they play , I will sing thée a Roundelay . Now let me kiss thy cherry lips fair , And praise all thy Features that are so rare : Thy forehead is high and lofty doth rise , Thy swéet Ruby lips and thy pretty black Eyes . I 'le lye by thée all the cold night , Thou 'st want nothing for thy delight , Thou shalt have anything thou shalt have me Surely I have something that will please thee . She hearing her Lover Thus kindly complain From making him answer she c●uld not refrain , She gave him her hand with a low courtesie : And thus she replyed I 'le have none but thée . Thy bonny fair face And thy words so swéet , Did conquer my heart When we first did méet . There 's never a Lad In the Nor●h Countrey Shall ever have my favor but only thee . Then let us gang to the Kirk now with speed . For why I think long till we do the déed , Since I may have any thing I will have thée Because thou hast something that will please me .
