The lusty miller's recreation, or, The buxome females chief delight : being a most pleasant design between a certain miller, the good-wife, and her three daughters : A most delectable new song, &c. : Fair Peggy first to'th mill with grist was sent, who pleas'd return'd, but would not tell th' event : which Betty once perceiving, needs would go, who sped in the same tune, returned too : at which the mother knew not what to guess, but did her self in admiration bless : Till Jenny, [o]f the three the youngest lass, would needs go see how all this came to pass, returns the same : then forth the mother set, who finds the plot, but ne'r discover'd it / To a pleasant new tune.
