Catches, canons and drinking songs
“Hark, Harry! ’tis late, come let us begone,
for Westminster Tom, by my faith strikes one,”
“Say’st thou so honest Lad?
what makes him so fancy to strike one
and yet not tell us the cause why?”
“Pish, ’twas done in good part,
to get us away,
and will certainly double his blow if we stay.”
