  2. The waiter on those services employ;
  3. Drink you, and I will snatch it from the boy,
  4. Watching the part where your sweet mouth hath been,

  6. If he, with clownish manners, thinks it fit
  7. To taste, and offer you the nasty bit,
  8. Reject his greasy kindness, and restore
  9. Th' unsav'ry morsel he had chew'd before.
  10. Nor let his arms embrace your neck, nor rest
  11. Your tender cheek upon his hairy breast;
  12. Let not his hand within your bosom stray,
  13. And rudely with your pretty bubbies play.
