<HEAD>THE COALIER LASSIE</HEAD>
<HEAD TYPE="sub">A NEW SONG <HI>To it's own proper Tune.</HI></HEAD>
<LG>
<L>THe Coalier had a Daughter,</L>
<L>And &s;he is wondrous bonny;</L>
<L>But if your had once brought her</L>
<L>To a true &s;en&s;e of Joy,</L>
<L>Although &s;he &s;trugle for a while</L>
<L>yet you'll won about her,</L>
<L>If once her Heart you can beguile</L>
<L>you'll never go without her.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>Although at fir&s;t &s;he may deny,</L>
<L>yet you mu&s;t pur&s;ue her:</L>
<L>Her Mode&s;ty will make her cry,</L>
<L>your Rudene&s;s will undo her.</L>
<L>But with a forward brisk Addre&s;s</L>
<L>unto the point intended;</L>
<L>Fir&s;t you mu&s;t Ki&s;s &amp; then Care&s;s,</L>
<L>and &s;o the Matter's ended.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>This was the method that I us'd</L>
<L>while &s;he was denying;</L>
<L>And ay the more that &s;he refus'd</L>
<L>the more I was applying:</L>
<L>Till the Key of her Virginity</L>
<L>to me &s;he did deliver;</L>
<L>Tho' I like not the Affinity</L>
<L>to receive it was clever.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>How happy then's the Landwart</L>
<L>that is the Coaliers Ma&s;ter</L>
<L>For he may &s;peak a word with her Laird</L>
<L>when &s;he lyes down to re&s;t her.</L>
<L>And when her Father's at his Kaill,</L>
<L>and from his hand not mi&s;t her:</L>
<L>I'll warrand you &s;he'll never &s;ail</L>
<L>to thank the Lad la&s;t ki&s;t her.</L>
