Truth's Integrity, OR, A Curious Northern Ditty Called, Love will find out the Way.  
To a pleasant new tune  

 
 

OVer the Moutains  
and under the waves,  
Over the Fountains,  
and under the Graves.  
Under floods which are the deepest,  
which do Neptune obey,  
Over Rocks which are the stéepest,   

Love will find out the way.   

Where there is no place  
for the Glow-worm to lie,  
Where there is no place  
for the receipt of a fly,  
where the gnat she dares not venture  
lest herself fast she lay,  
But if Love come he will enter,   

and will, &c.   

You may estéem him,  
a child of his force,  
Or you may déem him,  
a coward which is worse.  
But if he whom Love doth honour,  
be concealed from the day,  
Set a thousand guards upon him,   

Love will, &c.   

Some think to lose him,  
which is too unkind,  
And some do suppose him,  
po● heart to be blind,  
But if he were hidden,  
do the best you may,  
Blind Love if so you call him.   

will find, &c.   

Well may the Eagle  
stoop down to the fist,  
Or you may inveigle  
the phoenix of the East.  
With fear the tigers  
to give over their prey,  
But never stop a Lover,   

he will, etc   

From Dover to Barwick,  
and Nations throughout,  
Brave Guy Earl of Warwick,  
that Champion so stout.  
With his warlike behaviour,  
through the world he did stray  
To win h●s Phillis favour,   

Love will etc,   

In order next enters  
Bevis so brave,  
After Adventures  
and policy grave.  
To see whom he desired,  
his Josian so gay,  
For whom his heart was fired,   

Love will find out the way.    

The second Part,  
To the same tune,  
 
 

THE Gordian knot,  
which True Lovers knit,  
Undo you cannot  
nor yet break it.  
Make use of your Inventions,  
their fancies to betray,  
To frustrate your Intentions,   

Love will find out the way;   

From Court to the Cottage,  
in Bower and Hall,  
From the King to the beggar.  
Love conquers all.  
Though ne'er so stout and Lordly  
strive do what you may,  
Yet sure, never so hardy;   

Love will, &c.   

Love hath power over Princes,  
and greatest Emperor,  
In any Provinces,  
such is love's power.  
There is no resisting  
but him obey,  
In spite of all contesting,   

Love will, etc,   

If that he were hidden,  
as all men that are,  
Were strictly forbidden,  
that place to declare.  
Winds that have no abidings,  
Pitying their delay,  
Will come and bring him tidings.   

and direct &c.   

If the Earth could part him,  
he would gallop it o'er,  
If the Seas should overthwart him,  
he will swim to the shore.  
Should his Love become a swallow  
through his air to stray,  
Love will lend wings to follow,   

and will find out the way.   

There is no striving,  
to cross his intent,  
There is no contriving,  
his plots to prevent,  
But if once the Messenger greet him  
that his True love doth stay,  
If death should come and meet him,   

Love will find out the way.
