Madam, I am come to court you,

a
Madam, I am come to court you,
If your favor I can gain.

b
Ah, ah! said she, you are a bold fellow,
If I e'er see your face again!

c
Madam, I have rings and diamonds,
Madam, I have houses and land,
Madam, I have a world of treasure,
All shall be at your command.

d
I care not for rings and diamonds,
I care not for houses and land,
I care not for a world of treasure,
So that I have a handsome man.

e
Madam, you think much of beauty,
Beauty hasteneth to decay,
For the fairest of flowers that grow in summer
Will decay and fade away.
