too soon, too soon obtain'd. MERRY SONGS IV. 5 66 JENNY LONG RESISTED "JENNY LONG RESISTED WULLY'S FIERCE DESIRE " [c. 1700] [A Broadside Song with music ; set by R. Lever- idge ; also in Pills to Purge Melancholy, ii. 245]. Jenny long resisted Wully's fierce desire; She the more persisted, Coyness rais'd his Fire. When he'd reap'd the Treasure, And the Virgin's Spoils, He found such short Pleasure, Answer'd not his Toils. Jenny lay neglected In her Lover's Arms, When she was rejected, She try'...d all her Charms: Then she did discover, That no Trick, nor Art, Tho't might win a Lover, Cou'd regain his Heart. "THUS DAMON KNOCKT" 67 "THUS DAMON KNOCKT AT CELIA'S DOOR " [1700] [By G. Farquhar in The Constant Couple ; music ill Pills to Purge Melancholy (1709), iv. 203; set by D. PurcellJ. Thus Damon knock'd at Cselia's Door, Thus Damon knock'd at Cselia's Door, He sigh'd and begg'd, and wept and swore, The sign was so, She answer'd no, The sign was so, She answer'd no, no, no, no. Again he sigh'd again he pray'd, No Damon no, no, no, no, no, I am afraid; Consider Damon I'm a Maid, Consider Damon no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm a Maid.
