but kep'd 'em._] His six Sons there hard by him stand, Each one was a Commander; To shew he could a Lady serve, As well as the _Hollander_. And there doth Sir _John Hollis_ rest, Who was the Major General; To Sir _John Norris_, that brave blade, And so they go to Dinner all. For now the Shew is at an end, All things are done and said; The Citizen pays for his Wife, The Prentice for the Maid. _A_ SONG _Sung by Mrs._ CAMPION, _in the Comedy call'd_, she wou'd and she wou'd not. _By Mr._ JOHN WELDON. [Music] _Caelia_ my Heart has often rang'd, Like Bees o'er Gaudy Flowers; And many Thousand Loves have chang'd, 'Till it was fix'd, 'till it was fix'd on yours; But _Caelia_ when I saw those Eyes, 'Twas soon, 'twas soon determin'd there; Stars might as well forsake the Skies, And Vanish into Air: Stars might as well forsake the Skies, And Vanish into Air. Now if from the great Rules I err, New Beauties, new Beauties to admire; May I again, again turn wanderer, And never, never, never, never, never, no, never, Never, never, never, never, never, never, never, Never, never, never, settle more: May I again, again turn wanderer, And never, never, never, never, never, no, never, Never, never, never, never, never, never, never, Never, never, never, settle more. _A_ SONG _made for the Entertainment of her Royal Highness. Set by Mr._ LEVERIDGE. _Sung by Mrs._ LINDSEY _in_ CALIGULA. [Music] Tho' over all Mankind, besides my conquering Beauty, Conquering beauty, my conquering beauty Reigns; My conquering Beauty Reigns; From him I love, from him I love when I meet disdain, A killing damp, a killing damp comes o'er my Pride: I'm fair and young, I'm fair and young, I'm fair and young in vain: I'm fair and young, I'm fair and young, I'm fair and young in vain; No, no, no, let him wander where he will, Let him wander, let him wander, Let him wander, let him wander where he will, I shall have Youth and Beauty, Youth and Beauty, Youth and Beauty, I shall have Youth and Beauty, Youth and Beauty still; I shall have Beauty that can charm a _Jove_, Can Charm a _Jove_, and no fault, No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no fault, no, no, no fault, But constant Love: From my Arms then let him fly, fly, fly, From my Arms then let him fly; Shall I languish, pine, and dye? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no not I. _A_ SONG _in the Fair_ P
