I am SLUT; I am a slattern,

You must not take me for your pattern.

I spend my days in slovenly ease;

I sleep when I like and I wake when I please.

My manners, they are indolent;

In clutter and filth I am quite content.

Here is my kitchen, where I stir up my messes,

And wear out my old shoes and soiled silk dresses.

My table sags beneath the weight

Of stale food and unwashed plate;
