<L>YOu lu&s;ty young Batchelors pray now attend,</L>
<L>Here is joyful good tydings which to you I &s;end;</L>
<L>In the City of <HI>We&s;tmin&s;ter</HI> lives a fair Maid,</L>
<L>Who has two hundred pound to her Portion 'is &s;aid:</L>
<L><HI>Any Young-Man may have it if he'll open her hole,</HI></L>
<L><HI>But it lies at</HI> New-Ca&s;tle, <HI>and all in Sea-Cole.</HI></L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>She told a young-man whom &s;he lov'd as her life,</L>
<L>That &s;he had a de&s;ire to be his &s;weet Wife,</L>
<L>And intreated that he would be loving and kind,</L>
<L>Then an excellent Fortune of her he &s;hould find,</L>
<L><HI>If he would be but willing to open her hole,</HI></L>
<L><HI>He &s;hould have all her Money likewi&s;e her Sea-Cole.</HI></L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>He fain would have finger'd her Money, we find;</L>
<L>But to love her, alas! he was no ways inclind,</L>
<L>Though &s;he often had ki&s;s'd him, and call'd him her Dear,</L>
<L>Yet the innocent Dam&s;el was never the near;</L>
<L><HI>He refu&s;ed, it &s;eems, for to open her hole,</HI></L>
<L><HI>Though he might have her Money, and all her Sea-Cole.</HI></L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>If any young Gallant her Love would obtain,</L>
<L>For to langui&s;h and lye at her feet is in vain,</L>
<L>Or to tell her you're wounded with Darts from her Eyes,</L>
<L>Such a &s;ort of fond wooing &s;he'll &s;corn and de&s;pi&s;e;</L>
<L><HI>You mu&s;t ki&s;s her, and hug her, and open her hole,</HI></L>
<L><HI>Then &s;he'll give you her Money, and all her Sea-Cole.</HI></L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>It &s;eems &s;he is beautiful charming and fair,</L>
<L>And as plump as a Doe, with fine delicate Ware;</L>
<L>Should you &s;earch the whole City of <HI>We&s;tmin&s;ter</HI> round,</L>
<L>A young La&s;s more delightful is not to be found;</L>
<L><HI>Come away then &s;ome Gallant and open her hole,</HI></L>
<L><HI>You may have all her money, likewi&s;e her Sea-cole.</HI></L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>She'll not have a Man that is aged and grey,</L>
<L>That &s;hall cau&s;e her, when marry'd, to wander a&s;tray;</L>
<L>But &s;he'll have a brisk Gallant, both brawny and &s;tout,</L>
<L>That at half an hours warning can yerk her about;</L>
<L><HI>That can hug her, and ki&s;s her, and open her hole,</HI></L>
<L><HI>He &s;hall have all her Money, likewi&s;e her Sea-cole.</HI></L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>Young Gallants why will you &s;tand in your own light,</L>
<L>When a beautiful La&s;s does &s;o friendly invite,</L>
<L>And intreat you to ta&s;te of tho&s;e Amorous Charms,</L>
<L>Which are now to be found in her &s;oft melting Arms:</L>
<L><HI>Make no longer delaying, come open her hole,</HI></L>
<L><HI>You &s;hall have all her money, likewi&s;e her Sea-cole.</HI></L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>That man that will pity her &s;orrowful moan,</L>
<L>Though he has not a Groat in the World of his own,</L>
<L>He &s;hall &s;oon be inve&s;ted with her happy &s;tore,</L>
<L>Though it was above twenty or thirty times more,</L>
<L><HI>If he will be but willing to open her hole,</HI></L>
<L><HI>He &s;hall have all her money, likewi&s;e her Sea-cole.</HI></L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>Whoever comes to her may have the reward,</L>
<L>Though a Tinker, nay, Cobler, or Taylor, good Lord,</L>
<L>So he has but the ab&s;olute parts of a Man,</L>
<L>And will do his indeavour as much as he can,</L>
<L><HI>For to ki&s;s her, and hug her, and open her hole,</HI></L>
<L><HI>He &s;hall have all her money, likewi&s;e her Sea-cole.</HI></L>
