Boys will be boys and girls be girls

for Godde hath willed it soe;

Thy dochter Tib hath goodly curles—

my Toms none fole, I trom.

His evening chores ben all to-done,

and she hath fed the pigges,

and now the village green upon

they daunce and sing their jigges.

His squeaking crowd the fiddler plies,

And Tom and Tib can see
