Catches, canons and drinking songs

to your rude health,

Song: Zounds woman, don’t chatter but mind what I say,...

by William Bates . A Catch for Three voices , in B-flat major

Text:

Zounds woman, don’t chatter but mind what I say, I’ll stand up for Wilkes by night or by day,
fine doings indeed I swear by my life, then since you’re so stout pray stand for your wife,
great words, little deeds, you plainly have shown, I want you to stand and poor man you lie down.
