（单词翻译:单击）

I askèd a thief to steal me a peach：

    He turnèd up his eyes.

    I ask'd a lithe1 lady to lie her down：

    Holy and meek2， she cries.

    As soon as I went

    An Angel came：

    He wink'd at the thief，

    And smil'd at the dame3；

    And without one word said

    Had a peach from the tree，

    And still as a maid

    Enjoy'd the lady.
