❧A Newe Ballade intytuled / Good Fellowes must go learne to Daunce.

[figure]

GOod fellowes must go learne to daunce,

the brydeall is full nere a:

There is a brall come out of Fraunce,

the tryxt ye harde this yeare a.

For I must leape and thou must hoppe,

and we must turne all three a:

The fourth must bounce it lyke a toppe,

and so we shall a gree a.

I praye thee Mynstrell make no stoppe,

for we wyll merye be a.

The Brydegrome would giue twentie pounde,

the mariage daye were paste a:

ye knowe whyles louers are vnbounde,

the knotte is slyper faste a.

A better man maye come in place,

and take the Bryde awaye a.

God send our wilkin better grace.

our pretie Tom doth saye a.

God Vycar axe the banes apace,

and haste the mariage daye a.

A bande of belles in Bauderycke wyse,

woulde decke vs in our kynde a:

A shurte after the Moryce guyse,

to flounce it in the wynde a.

A wyffler for to make the waye,

and maye brought in with all a:

Is brauer then the Sunne I saye,

(.)

and passeth round or brall a.

For we wyll tripe so tricke and gaye.

that we wyll passe them all a.

Drawe to dauncinge neyghboures all

good fellowshyppe is best a:

It skylles not yf we take a fall,

in honoringe this feste a.

¶

The Bryde wyll thanke vs for oure glee,

the worlde wyll vs beholde a:

O where shall all this dauncinge bee,

in Kent or at cotsolde a.

Oure Lorde doth knowe then axe not mee,

and so my tale is tolde a▪

[figure]

ADewe sweete harte, a dewe

Syth we must parte,

To lose the loue of you,

It greues my harte.

Once againe come kysse me

syth I so long must mys thee

[...]inge harte shall wyshe thee,

To ease me of my smarte.

And thoughe I nowe do leaue thee,

It wyll I not deceaue thee,

But come againe and wedde thee,

Euen for thy iust desarte.

Syr Launcelotte comes againe syr,

So men do saye:

Tom tosse wyll sayle to Spayne sir,

By Tyborne awaye.

Subtoll sinne wyll haue her.

Thoughe wyttie Watte do craue her,

yet cuttinge clowne shall saue her,

Vnlesse he lose his praye.

And though ye be so wyle ye,

And she do loke so hyle ye:

At length she wyll begyle ye,

And [...]span [...]he best ye maye.

[...]s so coye sir,

Sh [...] [...] be solde,

W [...]s her ioye sir,

T [...] tolde:

Ra [...] wyll not blade it,

Jack [...]r wyll not swade it,

The Py [...]lbowes are not made it,

Therof ye maye be bolde.

Although ye now haue cought her,

ye wyll repent here after,

For farder ye haue sought her,

Then I haue thought ye would.

Finis.

Creation

Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.

Editorial practices

EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO.

EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org).

The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source.

Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data.

Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so.

Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as <gap>s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor.

The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines.

Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).
