The careful wife's good counsel : and the husband's firm resolution to reform his life, in order to lay up something for a Rainy-Day. Kind Husband if you mean to thrive, Some other way you must contrive, And not consume and waste your store, It will be hard to work for more; Therefore be rul'd by me, I pray, Save something for a Rainy-Day. I in the yoke will draw with you, And what I can will freely do; If you the like will do again, Our charge I'm sure we may maintain; Thus by our labour, then we may Save something for a Rainy-Day. Tune of the spinning wheel,&c.
