English text
- Fie, nay, prithee, John,
- Do not quarrel, man!
- Lets be merry and drink about;
- You're a rogue, you cheated me!
- I'll prove before this company,
- I caren't a farthing, sir,
- for all you are so stout!
- Sir, you lie! I scorned your word,
- or any man that wears a sword!
- For all your huff, who cares a damn,
- and who cares for you?
