Poor Tom the taylor his lamentation. [electronic resource] : Giving an account how he pickt up a miss near the maypole in the Strand, and also how he handed her to the fair. where he treated her very generously, but according to the old proverb, sweet meat must have sower sauce, for while he was safe a snoring in bed she very dexterously picked his pocket, leaving him to pay the reckoning, without ever a penny in his purse, this unforunate disaster may well be a warning to all the taylors in or about London to forsake their old accustomed tricks, setting poor Tom before them as an example. To the tune of, Daniel Cooper.
