Thou ghost of Queensbury! whose judging sprite

Satan may spare to peep a single night,

Pronounce—if ever in your days of bliss

Asmodeus struck so bright a stroke as this;

To teach the young ideas how to rise,

Flush in the cheek, and languish in the eyes;

Rush to the heart, and lighten through the frame,

With half-told wish and ill-dissembled flame;

For prurient nature still will storm the breast—

Who, tempted thus, can answer for the rest?
