:I gave her cakes, and I gave her ale, :and I gave her sack and sherry, :kiss'd her once, and I kissed her twice, :And we were wondrous merry. :I gave her beads and bracelets fine, :And I gave her gold, down derry. :I thought she was afear'd, till she stroked my beard, :And we were wondrous merry. :Merry, my heart's merry, :my cock's merry, :my spright's merry, :merry, merry.
