Because there was another H:tune by this title, it was renamed "The New New Exchange" (1665) and H:"The New Royal Exchange" (1670). W:I'll go no more to the New Exchange, there is no room at all W:It is W:so throng'd and crowded by the gallants of Whitehall W:But I'll go to W:the Old Exchange, where old things are in fashion W:For now the Kew's W:become the shop of this blessed Reformation W:Come, my new Courtiers, W:what d'ye lack? Good consciences? I you do W:Here's long and wide, W:the only wear, the straight will trouble you K:GDor D|G3/2A/2B/2c/2 BA2|G3 G2G|A>Bc cB2|A3 A2A| A>Bc d2G|FFE F2D|G3/2A/2B/2c/2 BA2|G3G2||
