“When lovely woman stoops to folly,
And finds too late that men betray,
What charm can soothe her melancholy,
What art can wash her guilt away?

To hide her shame from every eye,
To give repentance to her lover,
And wring his bosomis to die.”

And truth in every shepherds tongue,
These pretty pleasures might me move
To live with thee and be thy Love.”
