your_o wife_n if_o she_o chance_v to_o look_v you_o she_o will_v lead_v you_o a_o bad_a life_n i_o tell_v you_o before_o in_o a_o song_n i_o do_v sing_v that_o winter_n be_v long_o and_o much_o hunger_n do_v bring_v and_o many_o a_o family_n come_v unto_o want_n where_o husband_n be_v give_v to_o drink_v and_o to_o rant_v therefore_o it_o be_v good_a to_o keep_v something_o in_o store_n and_o learn_v to_o pass_v by_o alehouse_n door_n and_o think_v of_o cold_a winter_n for_o be_v sure_a it_o will_v come_v if_o mean_v then_o be_v want_v then_o all_o be_v undo_v let_v old_a age_n and_o sickness_n be_v a_o man_n chief_a care_n besure_n it_o will_v come_v we_o must_v all_o have_v a_o share_n then_o bad_a husband_n will_v think_v what_o they_o spend_v in_o vain_a pot_n when_o they_o have_v go_v home_o and_o make_v themselves_o sot_n be_v it_o not_o then_o folly_n for_o a_o man_n to_o do_v so_o he_o know_v not_o his_o friend_n than_o i_o say_v from_o his_o foe_n he_o waste_v his_o wit_n and_o consume_v his_o estate_n and_o repent_v his_o folly_n when_o it_o be_v too_o late_o now_o in_o spend_v your_o money_n be_v not_o too_o free_a but_o trust_v to_o your_o se●ves_n when_o you_o do_v no_o see_v i_o and_o be_v sure_a to_o save_v something_o against_o a_o rainy_a day_n then_o your_o own_o pot_n at_o home_n the_o better_a will_v play_v and_o to_o your_o own_o wi●e_n and_o
