Poor Solomon must on a red-herring dine;
To buy her fine clothes, and rich tippets of scarlet,
And dress the poor beggar in garbs of a harlot.
If willing with good cheerful neighbours to spend,
Or a convivial hour with some gay social friend;
To Bo——m’s would go, and therein not to be check’d,
Let him shun the hard fate of a husband hen-peck’d.
If he wish not to labour with want and disgrace,
Nor to answer demands which will fly in his face,
Nor would open his purse for the debts of another,
