Catches, canons and drinking songs

to your rude health,

Song: Had she not care enough of the old man? she wed...

by Henry Purcell . For Three voices , in C major

Text:

Had she not care enough of the old man?
she wed him,
she fed him,
and to the bed she led him,
for sev’n long winters she lifted him on,
but oh, how she niggled him all the night long.
