CXXX.

H, where are you going,

My pretty maiden fair,

With your red rosy cheeks,

And your coal-black hair?

I'm going a-milking,

Kind sir, says she;

And it's dabbling in the dew,

Where you'll find me.

May I go with you,

My pretty maiden fair, &c.

Oh, you may go with me,

Kind sir, says she, &c.

If I should chance to kiss you,

My pretty maiden fair, &c.

The wind may take it off again,

Kind sir, says she, &c.

And what is your father,

My pretty maiden fair, &c.

My father is a farmer,

Kind sir, says she, &c.

And what is your mother,

My pretty maiden fair, &c.

My mother is a dairy-maid,

Kind sir, says she, &c.
