The valiant sea-mans happy return to his love : after a long seven years absence : full seven years was he absent from his love, she constant to him all this while did prove, though many proffers she from others had, but yet the seaman, that same lusty lad : in her poor heart had gotten so much room, that all she slighted which to her did come : and now he's come, who to her heart was nearest a thousand welcomes she gives to her dearest / Tune of, I am so deep in love, or, [T]hrough the cool shady woods ; with allowance.
