Lacemen and placemen, ministers and wits,
And Quakers of both sexes, much enjoying
A morning’s reading by the ocean’s rim,
That sect delighting in the sea’s broad brim.
AN ABRIDGMENT OF ALL THAT IS PLEASANT IN MAN.
And lo! amongst all these appear’d a creature,
So small, he almost might a twin have been,
With Miss Crachami—dwarfish quite in stature,
Yet well proportion’d—neither fat nor lean,
