any_o among_o you_o that_o my_o colonel_n have_v wrought_v upon_o by_o his_o asperse_v of_o i_o that_o have_v any_o hard_a thought_n against_o i_o i_o desire_v that_o you_o will_v speak_v that_o i_o may_v give_v you_o satis_fw-la faction_n in_o all_o thing_n and_o for_o the_o future_a i_o shall_v desire_v that_o you_o will_v continue_v your_o obedience_n to_o my_o command_n as_o former_o but_o if_o so_o be_v my_o carriage_n have_v be_v such_o towards_o you_o as_o that_o you_o desire_v to_o have_v another_o captain_n in_o my_o place_n i_o shall_v rest_v myself_o content_v and_o march_v no_o far_o whereupon_o they_o cry_v unanimous_o with_o one_o consent_n no_o other_o captain_n no_o other_o captain_n we_o have_v always_o find_v you_o faithful_a to_o we_o and_o therefore_o we_o desire_v no_o other_o captain_n we_o will_v be_v obedient_a to_o your_o command_n in_o all_o thing_n we_o will_v do_v whatsoever_o you_o will_v have_v as_o to_o do_v and_o as_o we_o have_v petition_v the_o general_n in_o your_o behalf_n so_o we_o shall_v still_o own_o the_o petition_n for_o which_o i_o give_v they_o many_o thanks_o and_o so_o march_v towards_o our_o quarter_n but_o upon_o our_o march_n one_o of_o my_o soldier_n come_v up_o to_o i_o as_o he_o say_v to_o tell_v i_o a_o pretty_a story_n and_o use_v this_o very_a expression_n that_o it_o be_v a_o true_a story_n what_o be_v that_o say_v i_o than_o he_o begin_v to_o tell_v i_o that_o be_v have_v a_o young_a cuckoo_n at_o his_o quarter_n and_o a_o little_a hedge-sparrow_n feed_v he_o but_o feed_v he_o so_o long_o till_o the_o cuckoo_n eat_v off_o her_o head_n captain_n say_v he_o you_o may_v pick_v out_o the_o english_a of_o this_o with_o that_o all_o the_o troop_n that_o hear_v it_o burst_v out_o in_o a_o laughter_n import_v thus_o much_o that_o i_o have_v hatch_v up_o a_o cockatrice_n in_o my_o own_o bosom_n and_o that_o my_o cornet_n be_v the_o cuckoo_n and_o i_o the_o sparrow_n have_v rail_v he_o up_o from_o a_o poondragoon_o at_o eighteen_o penny_n per_fw-la diem_fw-la be_v my_o fellow_n towns-man_n former_o to_o be_v my_o cornea_n at_o five_o shilling_n per_fw-la diem_fw-la yet_o such_o be_v his_o requital_n with_o ingratitude_n that_o he_o be_v the_o only_a man_n that_o first_o begin_v this_o broil_n between_o my_o colonel_n and_o i_o and_o since_o he_o have_v be_v cornet_n he_o have_v let_v fall_v these_o or_o the_o like_a expression_n among_o my_o soldier_n that_o he_o shall_v rise_v no_o high_o in_o preferment_n unless_o he_o can_v leap_v over_o my_o leiut_a head_n but_o what_o he_o gape_v after_o i_o shall_v leave_v it_o for_o you_o to_o judge_v and_o so_o proceed_v to_o the_o next_o the_o next_o randesvouz_n we_o have_v be_v at_o whaly-bridge_n where_o my_o col._n give_v i_o another_o fierce_a charge_n at_o the_o head_n of_o his_o regiment_n he_o tell_v i_o that_o i_o be_v a_o base_a scandalous_a fellow_n and_o i_o have_v sing_v bawdy_a song_n upon_o my_o march_n which_o be_v a_o grief_n to_o all_o godly_a christian_n that_o hear_v i_o and_o he_o name_v one_o of_o the_o song_n which_o be_v this_o i_o meet_v with_o joan_n of_o kent_n etc._n etc._n i_o shall_v therefore_o give_v you_o a_o true_a and_o perfect_a relation_n both_o of_o the_o manner_n and_o also_o the_o occasion_n of_o my_o fing_n that_o you_o may_v the_o better_o see_v upon_o what_o slight_a occasion_n he_o will_v take_v advantage_n against_o i_o i_o have_v a_o soldier_n in_o my_o troop_n who_o name_n be_v roger_n daniel_n who_o be_v former_o a_o leiut_a in_o the_o state_n service_n a_o man_n who_o i_o love_v very_o well_o insomuch_o as_o i_o call_v he_o my_o buck_v ham_n my_o faucurit_n etc._n etc._n who_o come_v to_o my_o quarter_n one_o morning_n while_o i_o quarter_v at_o morley_n near_o derby_n and_o tell_v i_o that_o he_o have_v excellent_a music_n at_o his_o quarter_n and_o invite_v i_o to_o come_v that_o night_n to_o hear_v it_o i_o ask_v he_o what_o music_n it_o be_v he_o tell_v i_o it_o be_v gallant_a music_n but_o do_v not_o tell_v i_o what_o inslrument_n they_o be_v neither_o do_v i_o at_o present_a take_v any_o more_o notice_n of_o what_o he_o have_v say_v nor_o never_o think_v of_o his_o invitation_n till_o after_o supper_n but_o then_o it_o come_v into_o my_o mind_n i_o be_v musical_a myself_o and_o it_o be_v well_o know_v can_v sing_v my_o part_n i_o go_v up_o to_o his_o quarter_n where_o i_o find_v they_o at_o supper_n the_o people_n of_o the_o house_n bid_v i_o welcome_n and_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o have_v sup_v my_o buckingham_n as_o i_o call_v he_o rise_v from_o the_o table_n and_o go_v to_o a_o presse-cubboard_a where_o he_o take_v out_o a_o fife-recorder_n and_o a_o citern_n and_o deliver_v the_o recorder_n to_o the_o old_a man_n and_o the_o citern_a to_o the_o young_a man_n his_o son_n and_o they_o play_v half_a a_o dozen_o lesson_n verywell_n in_o consort_n insomuch_o that_o i_o think_v they_o can_v sing_v pricksong_n therefore_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v of_o they_o whether_o they_o can_v or_o not_o they_o answer_v no_o but_o they_o have_v some_o delight_n to_o play_v upon_o those_o foolish_a instrument_n as_o they_o call_v they_o and_o so_o play_v three_o or_o four_o lesson_n more_o and_o lay_v they_o aside_o now_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v as_o i_o sit_v by_o they_o in_o a_o chair_n take_v a_o pipe_n of_o tobacco_n one_o ralph_n dennis_n another_o soldier_n of_o i_o that_o quarter_v there_o have_v a_o very_a good_a voice_n sing_v a_o tune_n as_o he_o walk_v in_o the_o room_n ralph_n say_v i_o thou_o have_v a_o very_a good_a voice_n and_o so_o have_v grave_n which_o be_v a_o other_o of_o my_o soldier_n i_o care_v not_o if_o i_o have_v you_o two_o to_o quarter_v near_o i_o that_o i_o may_v teach_v you_o to_o sing_v your_o song_n capt._n say_v my_o bucking-ham_n will_v you_o not_o teach_v i_o why_o thou_o have_v no_o good_a voice_n say_v i_o yea_o but_o i_o have_v a_o good_a voice_n and_o i_o do_v not_o think_v but_o i_o shall_v learn_v to_o sing_v my_o part_n as_o soon_o as_o either_o of_o they_o do_v thou_o think_v thou_o can_v say_v i_o that_o shall_v be_v try_v and_o so_o begin_v to_o sing_v this_o old_a song_n new_a oystor_n etc._n etc._n and_o after_o i_o have_v sing_v it_o once_o or_o twice_o over_o i_o set_v they_o in_o their_o part_n and_o show_v they_o their_o time_n and_o strike_v time_n for_o they_o with_o my_o hand_n and_o find_v they_o very_o tractable_a for_o after_o twice_o or_o thrice_o sing_v over_o they_o sing_v their_o part_n and_o keep_v their_o time_n every_o well_o insomuch_o as_o i_o conceive_v the_o two_o man_n of_o the_o house_n who_o play_v on_o the_o music_n before_o be_v much_o take_v with_o it_o and_o like_v our_o music_n very_o well_o then_o i_o sing_v six_o or_o seven_o song_n and_o catch_n by_o myself_o whereof_o one_o of_o they_o be_v this_o that_o my_o col._n have_v lay_v to_o my_o charge_n i_o meet_v with_o joan_n of_o kent_n etc._n etc._n and_o this_o be_v another_o there_o dwell_v a_o pretty_a maid_n hername_n be_v sis_fw-la etc._n etc._n and_o these_o be_v the_o two_o song_n that_o go_v under_o the_o notion_n of_o bawdy_a song_n which_o i_o shall_v appeal_v to_o all_o those_o that_o know_v what_o they_o be_v and_o what_o the_o music_n be_v and_o true_o for_o my_o part_n i_o sing_v but_o mean_o for_o the_o music_n sake_n not_o think_v any_o hurt_n at_o all_o neither_o have_v i_o indeed_o any_o evil_a thought_n in_o my_o heart_n in_o sing_v any_o of_o those_o song_n which_o my_o conscience_n can_v bear_v i_o witness_n and_o it_o be_v that_o which_o must_v either_o accuse_v i_o or_o excuse_v i_o but_o now_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o my_o colonel-should_a have_v notice_n give_v he_o of_o my_o sing_v these_o old_a song_n now_o the_o woman_n of_o the_o house_n where_o we_o have_v the_o music_n after_o i_o be_v go_v she_o tell_v my_o buckingham_n that_o i_o be_v a_o merry_a man_n yea_o say_v he_o and_o i_o think_v he_o have_v as_o much_o cause_n as_o any_o man_n i_o know_v and_o withal_o speak_v something_o concern_v my_o enjoyment_n but_o she_o say_v but_o little_o more_o to_o he_o but_o about_o fourteen_o day_n after_o she_o go_v to_o darby-market_n and_o have_v a_o brother_n that_o be_v a_o shopkeeper_n there_o she_o speak_v something_o to_o he_o concern_v my_o mirth_n and_o that_o i_o have_v sing_v a_o great_a many_o merry_a song_n at_o her_o house_n now_o you_o shall_v see_v how_o her_o brother_n wrought_v notable_o upon_o this_o news_n have_v hear_v before_o how_o my_o colonel_n have_v paint_v i_o forth_o to_o colonel_n
