What! pouting, Miss? you toss your head in vain;

You know full well I’ve reason to complain,

Love serves me many a trick—Let’s try again.

But not of Love I’ll sing,

Who’s ever on the wing,

And will not stay a moment more

Than he’s caress’d, and fondled o’er;

I’ll choose some nobler theme,

Commanding more esteem;

Come, come, how dull you seem!
