Which I dare not Name, and you care not to show;

Says she I'm afraid you are given to flatter,

What is it you Mean, and pray where does it grow:

Now a Louse, &c.

Says he 'tis a Thing that has never a handle,

'Tis hid in the Dark, and it lies pretty low;

Says she then I fear that you must have a Candle,

Or else the wrong way you may happen to go:

Now a Louse, &c.

Says he was it darker than ever was Charcole,
