SONG[807]

_Gran._ O for a bowle of fatt canary,

Rich Palermo, sparkling sherry,

Some nectar else[808] from Juno's daiery: 90

O these draughts would make us merry!

_Psil._ O for a wench! (I deale in faces,

And in other dayntier things,)

Tickled am I with her embraces,--

Fine dancing in such fairy ringes. 95

_Ma._ O for a plump fat leg of mutton,

Veale, lambe, capon, pigge, and conney![809]

None is happy but a glutton;

None an asse but who wants money.

_Ch._ Wines, indeed, and girls are good, 100

But brave victuals feast the bloud:

For wenches, wine, and lusty cheere,

Jove would leape down to surfet heere. [_Exeunt._]
