A Song. Set by Mr. Jeremy Clark.
[[Listen]]
WHILE the Lover is thinking,
With my Friend I’ll be Drinking
And with Vigour pursue my Delight;
While the Fool is designing,
His fatal confining,
With Bacchus I’ll spend the whole Night:
With the God I’ll be Jolly,
Without Madness or Folly.
Fickle Woman to Marry Implore,
Leave my Bottle and Friend,
For so Foolish an end,
When I do, may I never Drink more.
A Health to the Tackers.
