MECHLIN.
"And if disputes of empire rise between
Mechlin, the Queen of Lace, and Colberteen,
'Tis doubt, 'tis darkness! till suspended Fate
Assumes her nod to close the grand debate."
—Young, Love of Fame.
"Now to another scene give place;
Enter the Folks with silk and lace,
Fresh matter for a world of chat
Right Indian this, right Macklin that."
