The little Couple.

THERE was a little man,
And he woo’d a little maid,
And he said, little maid will you wed wed wed,
I have little more to say,
Say me either yea or nay,
Little said is soonest mended-ded-ded.

The little maid reply’d;
Little Sir, you’ve little said,
To enduce a little maid to wed, wed, wed,
You must say a little more,
And produce a little ore,
Ere I to the church will be led led, led.

The little man reply'd,
If you’ll be my little bride,
I will raise my little rotes a little higher higher higher,
Though I’ve little for to prate,
Yet my little heart is great,
By the little ged of love I’m on fire, fire, fire.

The little maid reply'd,
If I be your little bride,
Pray what will you give me for to eat, eat, eat.
