SHE WAS NOT CAME.
On ! where are you going to, my pretty maid ’ To dance the cotillion, sir, she said.
Oh ! shall I go with you, my pretty maid 1 If you are invited, sir, she said.
Oh ! what is your father, my pretty maid ? My father’s a banker, sir, she said. And what is your mother, my pretty maid 1 A leader of fashion, kind sir, she said. Pray what is your fortune, my pretty maid ’ A cool half-a-million, kind sir, she said.
Oh 1 then I will marry you, my pretty maid. I think you’re mistaken, kind sir, she said.
