A Pleasant JIGG Betwixt Jack and his Mistress :

Or , The young Carman's courage cool'd by the suddain approach , of his Master , who found him too kind to his Mistress .

Tune of Mary Live Long.

Licensed according to Order .

A Carmen of late , Who liv'd in the city , A sorrowful Dity , His wife was too great with their Prentice Boy , But a swinging young Spark At a wench in the dark , Now this his Dame knew , And therefore stout Johnny , And therefore stout Johnny , Must tickle her 〈◊〉 .

Sweet Mistress I fear , A woful disaster , The wrath of me Master , If once he should hear , I play'd with your Lute , He would li●uor my hide , You 're a fool , she reply'd , Take courage for shame , O fear not your Master , Boy fear not your Master , But pleasure your Dame . I count it no crime , To dally in pleasure , We 'll Toy out of measure , 'T is not the first time , Nor sha'n't be the last , Therefore come on my Boy , Let us Pleasure enjoy , Take courage for shame , 'T is sweet Recreation , 'T is sweet Recreation , To pleasure thy Dame . Thy Master , I 'll swear , If once he should Cavel , We 'll send to dig Gravel , With Friends to Horn-Fair , He dare not say no , But at home we will stay , Then in order to play , The Froliksome Game , Boy do not deny me , John do not deny me , But pleasure thy Dame ,

It happen'd one day , His Mistriss came to him , No question she knew him , To be e'ry way , a Lad for her turn , Where 's your Master , she cry'd ? With a friend ▪ he reply'd ; She then void of shame , Said Johnny come kiss me , Sweet Johnny come kiss me , Make much of thy Dame .

Thy corral and Bells , And Whilstle I know it , If thou wilt bestow it For pleasures excells , The lest in the Town , Thou art Lusty and strong And can lay me along , Take Courage for shame , Thou here in the Stable , Thou here in the Stable , Shall pleasure thy Dame . His Master by chance , Then being near them . Did soon over-hear them , And strait did advance , With fury and Rage , Like a Fellow Horn-mad , He fell on the Lad , His shoulders he paid , 'Cause John in his Pasture , 'Cause John in his Pasture , a Tresspass had made . Ah! what hast thou done , So sad a vexation , Was ne'r in the nation , Horn-mad I shall run , Without all dispute , Oh ye villain said he , I will not make you Free , But bring you to shame , Because you have wrong'd me , Because you have wrong'd me , and play'd with your Dame .
