Chapter III

Text size

Oh! then for ev'ry new delight,
For equipage and diamonds bright,
_Quadrille_, and plays, and balls all night;
Oh! could I see the day!
Of love and joy I'd take my fill,
The tedious hours of life to kill,
In ev'ry thing I'd have my will,
With a _stand by----clear the way_.

FINIS.
