Lyrics: Anon
Love and Folly were at play,
Both too wanton to be wise;
They fell out, and in the fray,
Folly put out Cupid's eyes.
Straight the criminal was tried,
And had this punishment assign'd:
Folly should to Love be tied,
And condemned to lead the blind.
Love and Folly were at play,
Both too wanton to be wise;
They fell out, and in the fray,
Folly put out Cupid's eyes.
Straight the criminal was tried,
And had this punishment assign'd:
Folly should to Love be tied,
And condemned to lead the blind.
