The Hartford-shire damosel in great distress : This country girl is troubled in her mind, because young-men to her will not be kind, she sighs and sobs, and loudly doth cry, it is for a sweet-heart I surely shall dye : O young men come quickly, this is her song : If you don't ease me, I shall not live long / The tune is, my father gave me house and land.
