¶Lyrics / Text

The charge is prepared, the lawyers are met, The judges all ranged; a terrible shew. I go undismayed, for death is a debt; A debt on demand to pay what I owe. Then farewell my love, my dear charmer adieu, Contented to die, 'tis the better for you. Here ends all contention the rest of our lives, For this way, at once I please all of my wives.
