The Priests how and mutter to the Chair then turn to the People Song Son of Latrona thou great rogue Here 's None-so-fair her grief to disimbogue The Iade is skittish full of treachery But wilful rude and loath to try Chorus Loe here 's the Fool King Andrew too Let 's cheat them firmly er'they go Let 's cheat c.

The Chief Priest seats None-so-fair in the Chair it Thunders and Lightens the Chair sinks and in its place a dreadful shape arises and sayes The Princess to the Chair is pleasing And all her troubles now are easing The Chief Priest turns over his head and the other two Priests take the little Boy in the Surplice and whip him while they Sing this He took him by the Lilly Frock And scourged him full sore A long half hour by the Clock Alack a day therefore While Youth doth last the changes Ring With a ding dong ding dong ding When Youth is flown and Age is come The Clappers down the Bell doth groan And call you to a sad long home With a heavy heavy heavy boam boam The Chief Priest rises and waves his Wand thrice Ch.

Oh Sir we humbly do beseech To know who shall her Husband be For that our very Ears do itch And if you please we fain would see It Thunders and Lightens extreamly and then the Chair delivers this Oracle Lead None-so-fair to yonder Wood Where Lover showle like Beasts for Food There she must sigh and weep a good And so you there must leave her For the White Bear of Norwich must have her To her he will be very Civil Be gone 't is vain to huff or snivil K. And. O fie O fie O laud O me forlorn Would I had dy'd e'r I was born I have spent my Youth fair To get a wife for a Bear Woud Lippy I could leap out of my skin for joy Mother Woossut a brave Beldam she has keep'd her word Sweet Nothing vexes me but that I must be Aunt to her litter of Cubs We shall have roaring Nephews K.
