English Broadside Ballad Archive. The Amorous Gallant. / Who had a Mistris lovely, fair and kind, / She gave him all things to content his mind; / But he unkind, when he had done his pleasure, / Would have forsaken this beloved treasure: / But by her charms, to Wife she made him take her, / And now he swears he never will forsake her. 1663-1674.
