    Her cheeks they were a rosy red
    Her person straigth and tall
    No other lass could her surpass
    The pride of Townely Hall
    I did advance this comely maid
    Said I my charming fair
    Its by your allprecious beauty
    I'm caught in Cupid's snare
    You'll soon have lands and property
    And servant's at your call
    If you'll agree and marry
    Sweet Star of Townely Hall
