Her Mother when incourag'd
  With warm Geneva Dose,
        And a fa, la, la, la, &c.
Still cry'd, take care dear Philly,
  To keep thy Hanches close,
        And this fa, la, la, la, &c.
This made her stand out stoutly,
  Opposing all that come,
Though twenty Demi-Cannon
  Still were mounted at her Bum,
        And her fa, la, la, la, &c.

The Knight and Country Squire
  Were shot with her disdain,
        And her fa, la, la, la, &c.
The Lawyer was outwitted,
  The hardy Soldier slain,
        By her fa, la, la, la, &c.
The bluff Tarpolian Sailor
  In vain cry'd hard a Port,
She buffled Shirks at Sea,
  As the Country, Town, and Court;
        With her fa, la, la, la, &c.

The God of Love grown angry,
  That Phillis seemed so shy,
        Of her fa, la, la, la, &c.
Resolv'd her Pride to humble,
  And rout her pish and fie;

He sent a splayfoot Taylor,
  Who knew well how to stitch,
And in a little time had found
  A Button for her Britch,
        And her fa, la, la la, &c.

Yet was it not so close,
  But 'tis known without all Doubt,
        With a fa, la, la, la, &c.
A little humane Figure
  Has secretly dropp'd out,
        From her fa, la, la, la, &c.
