If a ghost’s in the case, they wont do it at any price.”
MORAL.
And now for the moral! Imprimis, young heiresses,
Don’t go riding o’ nights, and don’t rob mayors or mayoresses;
As to robbing your suitors, allow me to say,
On the face of the thing ’tis a scheme that won’t pay;
Though they sigh and protest, and are dabs at love-making,
You’ll not find one in ten
Of these charming young men
Can produce on occasion a purse worth your taking.
