The Astrologer - Gryphon

Written by：Traditional

It's of a bold astrologer

In London town did well

At telling maidens fortunes

There's none could him excell

There was a nice young serving girl

A living there close by

She went one day to the astrologer

All for to have a try

I hear that you tell fortunes Sir

Would you tell me mine said she

Of course my dear without a doubt

If you'll come upstairs with me

To come upstairs with you kind Sir

I fear I am afraid

She spoke it in such modesty

As if she was a maid

To come upstairs with me my dear

You need not be afraid

Knowing it was but the other day

You with your master laid

Then she began to curse and swear

She would her master bring

As witness for both him and her

That it was no such thing

My pretty maid don't swear and curse

You'll make the deed the worse

For the crown piece that he gave to you

You've got it in your purse

Oh indeed you can tell fortunes Sir

You've told me mine said she

Then out she pulled the crown piece

Good morning Sir said she
