The New Corant. 
Or the merry wooing of Jonney and Jenny.  
Young Men and Maids if here be any  
You'l say this Ballet is worth a penny,  
You shall ir hear if you will stay  
You know the price, buy them away.   
To a new Tune called Up goes ally ally.  
 engraving of man  engraving of woman  

HEar is a new fine ditty  
If you will but draw near  
You'l say it is wondrous pretty  
as ever you chanced to hear  
Then prithee be kind sweet Jenny  
And do me not deny  
My love it shall still continue  
until the day I die  
Then up goes ally ally  
up goes Mary and Nan  
Jonney was courting of Jenny  
and so they went merrily on.   

I have a littie money  
my father did give to me  
Then prithee come hither my honey  
and so let us both agree,  
Then slight me not sweet Jenny  
thou dost not know my mind  
my love it shall still continue  
Then prithee be loving and kind.  
Then up goes, &c.   

Besides I have a Cow  
which grazeth on the Plain  
Sweet Jenny canst love me now  
or else with grief I'm slain,  
Tis all for love of thee  
that I do here remain  
Then Jenny sit down by me  
and kiss me once again.  
Then up goes ally ally, &c.   

My mother did promise me  
when ever she did die  
She'd give me the Pottage pot  
between my wife and I,  
My Aunt she hath a Cradle  
which rocked my cousin Tom  
Sister Mary will give me a Ladle  
Thus Goods come in ding dung.  
Then up goes ally ally  
up goes Mary& Nan  
Jonney was courting of Jenney  
and so they went merrily on.   

Besides I have a you  
which cost me but five shilling  
And Bellows I have to blow  
If Jenny thou art but willing  
and other things I have  
Which to me doth belong  
we shall live fine and brave  
For our Goods come in ding dung.  
Then up with ally ally  
up goes Mary and Nan  
Jonney was courting of Jenney  
and so they went merrily on.   

Then Jenny give me thy hand  
and do not me deny  
Ile be at thy command  
until the day I die.  
Ile work both night& day  
my Jenny for to maintain  
then cast me not away  
But show some Love again.  
then up, &c.   

The Maids answer.  

Your words are very rare  
which you propound to me  
But some men will speak fair  
and yet deceitful be  
There is many maids have tryd  
what truth is in young men  
And constant some do prove  
but tis not one in ten.  
then up, &c.   

Yet this I do confess  
thou art a handsome man  
But you do run to Bess  
& then to me again  
Thus I do plainly see  
you waver like the wind  
You go to two or three  
then how can you prove kind  
then up with ally ally  
up goes Mary and Nan  
Jonney was courting of Jenney  
and so they went merrily on.   

Yet if you will be true  
unto no maid but me,  
This I will assure you  
thy wife I mean to be,  
But if you should be across  
as many husbands be,  
My heart will quickly burst  
as you shall plainly see,  
then up with ally ally, &c.    

The Mans answer.  

Sweet Jenny fear not you  
of my unconstant Love  
To thee I'll be as true  
as is the turtle dove  
Tis not the love of dross  
or Gold shall put me by  
There shall no Love be lost  
between my wife and I,  
then up with ally ally &c.   

Come now lets point a day  
when we shall married be  
Tom piper he shall play  
and I will dance with thee,  
So thus we'l spend the day  
in merriment and joy  
At night we'l go to bed  
and try to get a boy,  
then up with ally ally &c.   

And so for to conclude  
I do young men advice  
choose not a maid to rude  
But one of a handsome size,  
and so come let us kiss  
And make no more delay  
this Ballets a penny a piece  
So buy them all away  
then up with ally ally  
then up with Mary and Nan,  
Now Johnney doth lie with Jenney  
and so the World began.
