A full-fed girl she was, with ruddy cheek, 110

And features coarse, that grosser feelings speak,

To whom another miss, with passions strong,

And slender fist, had done some baby-wrong.

On Lucy’s gentle mind had Barlow wrought

To teach this child, whom she had labouring taught

With unpaid love—this unproductive brain

Would little comprehend, and less retain.

A farmer’s daughter, with redundant health,

And double Lucy’s weight and Lucy’s wealth,
