Back and side go bare, &c.

And Tib, my wife, that as her life

Loveth well good ale to seek;

Full oft drinks she, till ye may see

The tears run down her cheek:

Then doth she troll to me the bowl,

Even as a malt-worm sholde:

And saith, sweetheart, I took my part

Of this jolly good ale and old.

Back and side go bare, go bare,
