EPILOGUE

SPOKEN BY MRS BRACEGIRDLE.

I've had to-day a dozen billet-doux

From fops, and wits, and cits, and Bow-street beaux;[25]

Some from Whitehall, but from the Temple more;

A Covent-Garden porter brought me four.

I have not yet read all: But, without feigning,

We maids can make shrewd guesses at your meaning.
