Truths Integrity , OR , A Curious Northern Ditty Called , Love will find out the Way . To a pleasant new tune

OVer the Moutains and under the waves , Over the Fountains , and under the Graves . Under floods which are the déepest , which do Neptune obey , Over Rocks which are the stéepest , Love will find out the way . Where there is no place for the Glow-worm to lye , Where there is no place for the receipt of a fly , where the gnat she dares not venter lest her self fast she lay , But if Love come he will enter , and will , &c. You may estéem him , a child of his force , Or you may déem him , a coward which is worse . But if he whom Love doth honour , be conceal'd from the day , Set a thousand guards upon him , Love will , &c. Some think to loose him , which is too unkind , And some do suppose him , po● heart to be blind , But if he were hidden , do the best you may , Blind Love if so you call him . will find , &c. Well may the Eagle stoop down to the fist , Or you may inveagle the Phenix of the East . With fear the Tygers to give over their prey , But never stop a Lover , he will , &c From Dover to Barwick , and Nations throughout , Brave Guy Earl of Warwick , that Champion so stout . With his warlike behaviour , through the world he did stray To win h●s Phillis favour , Love will &c , In order next enters Bevis so brave , After Adventures and pollicy grave . To sée whom he desired , his Josian so gay , For whom his heart was fired , Love will find out the way .
The second Part , To the same tune ,

THE Gordion knot , which True Lovers knit , Undo you cannot nor yet break it . Make use of your Inventions , their fancyes to betray , To frustrate your Intentions , Love will find out the way ; From Court to the Cottage , in Bower and Hall , From the King to the Begger . Love conquers all . Though nere so stout and Lordly strive do what you may , Yet sure , never so hardy ; Love will , &c. Love hath power over Princes , and greatest Emperour , In any Provinces , such is Loves power . There is no resisting but him obey , In spight of all contesting , Love will , &c , If that he were hidden , as all men that are , Were strictly forbidden , that place to declare . Winds that have no abidings , pittying their delay , Will come and bring him Tydings . and direct &c. If the Earth could part him , he would gallop it o're , If the Seas should overthwart him , he will swim to the shore . Should his Love become a swalow through his Ayre to stray , Love will lend wings to follow , and will find out the way . There is no striving , to crosse his intent , There is no contriving , his plots to prevent , But if once the Messenger gréet him that his True love doth stay , If death should come and meet him , Love will find out the way .
