Text:
When Celia was learning on the spinet to play,
her tutor stood by her to show her the way,
she shook not the note, which angered him much,
and made him cry, “Zounds, ’tis a long pricked note you touch,”
surprised was the lady to hear him complain,
and said, “I will shake it when I come to’t again.”
