She is the best that I can well spare.
As the boy was a-going he met with three men.
The boy sold his cow for six pounds and ten.
What shall I do with the money I pray?
In your coat lining, the landlady did say,
Before you get robbed all on the highway.
O sat that highwayman drinking of wine,
Says I to myself, that money is mine.
The boy took his leave and away he did go;
The highwayman quickly followed him through.
You're well overtaken, my boy, he replied
...............................all on the highway.
How far are you going? this he replied
Now they both got on horseback and away they did ride.
Now they rode till the came to a very dark lane
And now, says the highwayman, tell me quite plain
Deliver your money without any strife
Or else.......
Now the boy tore the coat lining, .....
................................strewed it about
Now this highwayman quickly jumped off his horse
For little he thought it would be to his loss
And before he could get it into his purse

Now the master looked in at his door and says doss(?)
................................cow changed into a horse.
O no, kind master, your cow I have sold,
I robbed on the road by a highwayman bold
Why, I made a mad misery away with this horse
.................................quickly told
Of three hundred pounds both in silver and gold
And now for your courage and more for your fear
And if the poor rogue has lost all his stat(?).Mr. Lert (?)
