First Line: Tom prais'd his friend (who changed his state)
Last Line: Twill be the end of mine
Subject(s): Marriage; Weddings;husbands;wives


Tom prais'd his friend (who changed his state)
For binding fast himself and Kate
In union so divine:
"Wedlock's the end of life," he cried.
"Too true, alas!" said Jack, and sigh'd.—
—"'Twill be the end of mine."
