Then those delights my mind might move
To live with thee, and be thy love.
Sir Walter Raleigh, 1552–1618.
Pisc. Well sung, good woman; I thank you. I’ll give you another dish of fish one of these days, and then beg another song of you.
Izaak Walton, 1593–1683.

Behold her single in the field,
Yon solitary Highland lass!
Reaping and singing by herself;
Stop here, or gently pass!
