For none of the coves dare but like it,
As Joey, her kiddy, was there.

Full of glee, until ten that they started,
For supper Joe sent out a win;
A hog's maw between them was parted,
And after they sluic'd it with gin:
It was on an old leather trunk, sir,
They married were, never to part;
But Bessy, she being blind drunk, sir,
Joe drove her away in his cart.
