If we do not our pockets fill,
Others there are who quickly will,
But not by any paltry gains,
As pilfering of Sovereigns.
You must not crib a handsome shawl
And say 'twas lost at such a ball;
Nor will you in some corner place
A card or roll of costly lace,
That when you think she has forgot it,
You to your own use may allot it:—
