    “Come all ye young men that are wished to get married.”

    (continued from previous page)
    Until we come to the very same place
    We gave a side look to where the lassies were loosing
    Says I to myself, but their rind to their faces
    (10)
    The delicate creatures they seemed to get muggy
    Then some made a hole in their barrister- ale
    The noggins got heavy, their heels they turned uppermost
    Heels up my darlings, away went their veils.
