SONG

I go to Town

And when I come down,

I shall be married to Streephon* [*Note the two e's] And that to me will be fun.

Chorus) Be fun, be fun, be fun,

And that to me will be fun.

ENTER Cook-Cook) Here is the bill of fare.

Chloe reads) 2 Ducks, a leg of beef, a stinking partridge, and a tart.-I will have the leg of beef and the partridge. EXIT Cook.

And now I will sing another song.

SONG-I am going to have my dinner,

After which I shan't be thinner,

I wish I had here Strephon For he would carve the partridge if it should be a tough one.

Chorus)

Tough one, tough one, tough one

For he would carve the partridge if it

Should be a tough one.

EXIT Chloe and Chorus.-SCENE CHANGES TO THE INSIDE OF THE LION.

Enter Strephon and Postilion.

Streph:) You drove me from Staines to this place, from whence I mean to go to Town to marry Chloe. How much is your due?

Post:) Eighteen pence.

Streph:) Alas, my freind, I have but a bad guinea with which I mean to support myself in Town. But I will pawn to you an undirected Letter that I received from Chloe.

Post:) Sir, I accept your offer.
