While other sigh repenting.}}
our minds contenting<br>
we smiling laugh<br>
while other sigh repenting.

Come jolly Swaynes, come let us sit around,
And with blithe Carrols sullen cares confound.
The Shepheards life
Is void of strife,
No worldly treasures
Distastes our pleasures
With free consenting,
Our mindes contenting,
We smiling laugh
While other sigh repenting.
