A96215	The VVest-country damosels complaint: or, The faithful lovers last farewel. Being the relation of a young maid who pined her self to death, for the love of a young-man, who after he had notice of it, dyed likewise for grief. : Careless young-men, by this a warning take, how you kind virgins (when they love) forsake; least the same fate o're-take you, and you dye for breach of vows, and infidelity. Be kind, but swear not more than what you mean, least comick jests become a trajeck scean. : To the tune of, Johnny Armstrong.		1680 (1680)	Wing W1398; ESTC R228645	1,495	2
