The book of British ballads . ®fje beggars Daug&ter of aSdmall With that the faire bride they all did embrace,Saying, Sure thou art come of an honourable race,Thy father likewise is of noble degree,And thou art well worthy a lady to bee. Thus was the feast ended with joye and delighte,A bridegroome most happy was the younge knight,In joy and felicitie long lived hee,All with his faire ladye, the pretty Bessee.
