In the Same Style: Fair Susan

FAIR Susan did her Wif-hede well menteine,
Algates assaulted sore by Letchours tweine ;
Now, and I read aright that Auncient Song,
Olde were the Paramours, the Dame full yong.

Had thilke same Tale in other Guise been tolde ;
Had They been Yong (pardie) and She been Olde ;
That, by S' Kit, had wrought much sorer Tryal :
Full merveillous, I wote, were swilk Denyal.
