If they’ll let her re-open her shop;

No, they keep fast the key, we perceive,

Of the padlock they’ve clap’d on her door,

So the lady can’t piss without leave,

Nor squat, nor get f⸺d as before.

A bill drawn, presented, accepted,

And not paid when due, “as above,”

Is noted, protested, rejected,

A dry bob in commerce and love;

A short thing’s—no assets in hand,
