As Nelly to a chamber got br To take her leave of Ned br She loosd her lace & Cast a knot br (Ah why unlacd the maid.). br Now pull the further end she cryd br The Youth obeyd commands br And still the knot ye faster tyd br The more they parted hands br This fancy by the lover seen br She gave the silken braid br And with a kiss or two between br The parting posy said br When this you see remember me br And love me more & more br This knot when you at distance drew br Came closer than before.
