Will you marry one of my daughters?]

II.

Here comes three dukes a-riding, a-riding,
With a ransome dansome day!

Pray what is your intent, sirs, intent, sirs?
With a ransome dansome day!

My intent is to marry, to marry!

Will you marry one of my daughters, my daughters?

You are as stiff as pokers, as pokers!

We can bend like you, sir, like you, sir!

You’re all too black and too blowsy, too blowsy,
For a dilly-dally officer!

Good enough for you, sir! for you, sir!
