[Title card] If you to me a kiss will give, an answer quickly you'll receive -- Say if you like an evening tide, sometimes to take a pleasant ride -- I can't say indeed tis as humour suits, For you men are most terrible brutes -- Upon my word you graceless elf, I'll keep that answer to myself -- In those lovely features each charm I can see, Then say can you love & be happy with me.
