<poem>
I lay with an old man all the night,
I lay with an old man all the night,
I turned to him and he to me,
I turned to him and he to me,
hee could not doe so well as hee might,
hee could not doe so well as hee might,
but he would faine,
but he would faine,
but it would not bee.
but it would not bee.}}
