"You ne'er can get a Key?

"Just think, if I should wear a wig,

"How would you like me, Zadie?

"I'm sure you'll give it up, my sweet,

"Do—there's a gentle Lady!"

The Maiden laugh'd a silv'ry laugh;—

"The white stars set and shiver;

"The lover who bids for Zadie's heart

"And hand, must make up his mind to part

"With the Gift—or part for ever"
