Who's the Fool Now ?

Agnes said to her man
            (fie, man fie!)
Agnes said to her man
            (who's the fool now?)
Agnes said to her man
Fil thou the cup and I the can,
Thou hast well drunken man,
             who's the fool now?

I see a sheep shearing corn,
And a couckold blow his horn,

I see a man in the Moone,
Clowting of Saint Peters shoone, [ fixing St. Peter's shoe ]

I see a hare chase a hound,
Twenty mile above the ground,

I saw a goose ring a hog.
And a snail that did bite a dog,

I saw a mouse catch the cat,
Saw the cheese eat a rat,

I saw a maid milk a bull,
Every stroke a bucket-full, ]

Saw Bothvar buy a Drink
When it was I just can't think

Saw the Vipers move their wall
Heard Algaia answer a call

Saw the Ael use a chair
Saw a Grendel without hair

Saw Nomads build a house
Saw Minty scale a horse
