In talking of the Men!

They were her theme, at home, abroad,

At wake, and by the winter fire,

Whether it froze, or blew, or thaw’d,

In sunshine or in shade, her ire

Was never calm’d; for still she made

Scandal her pleasure—and her trade!

A Grand-daughter Dame Dowson had—

As fair, as fair could be!

Lovely enough to make Men mad;
