Song Lyrics:

(belch)"Pox on you (belch) for a Fop,"
"your stomach too queazy
cannot I Belch and fart,
you Coxcomb* to ease me,
what if I let fly in your Face,
and shall please ye?"

"Fogh, fogh, how sow'r he smells,
now he's at it again,
out ye Beast, I never met so nasty a man,
I'm not able to bear it"

"What the Devil d'ye mean?
no less that a Ceasar**
decreed with great reason
no restraint shou'd be laid
on the Bum or the Weason***
for Belching and farting
were always in season."

*Fool. Derived from a hat, in the shape of a rooster's comb, worn by jesters.

**Dr. Caesar was one of company of catch-singers.

***Esophagus.
