Gammer Gurton's garland of nursery songs and Toby Tickle's collection of riddles/A fiddler

by Peter Puzzlecap and Thomas Bewick

A FIDDLER.

Jacky, come give me thy fiddle,
 If ever thou mean to thrive.
Nay; I'll not give my fiddle
 To any man alive.

If I should give my fiddle;
 They'll think that I'm gone mad,
For many a joyful day
 My fiddle and I have had.
