But smile the rest : I'faith I know what I know.

• An old form of "then." I restore it (old ed. reads •* then ") for the sake of the rhyme.
SPECULUM A MANTIS. 49 From Sportive Wit; the Muses* Merriment t 1656.
A Maiden's Denial/ NAY pish ! nay phew ! nay, faith and will you ?
fie!
A gentleman and use me thus ! FU cry.
Nay, God's body, what means this ? Nay, fie for shame.
Nay faith,... away ! Nay, fie, you are to blame.
Hark ! somebody comes ! haxnis off, I pray !
I'll pinch, I'll scratch, I'll spurn, I'll run away.
Nay, faith, you strive in vain, you shall not speed You mar my ruff, you hurt my back, I bleed, Look how the door stands ope, somebody sees !
Your buttons scratch, in faith you hurt my knees.
What will men say ? Lord, what a coil is here !
You make me sweat ; i' faith, here's goodly gear.
* This song was printed from a MS. in the Sloane Collec- tion, by Ritson, in Antient Songs, 1790.
