More from this book
By the living jingo, she was all of a muck of sweat.
When lovely woman stoops to folly,
And finds too late that men betray,
What charm can soothe her melancholy,
What art can wash her guilt away?
A kind and gentle heart he had,
To comfort friends and foes;
The naked every day he clad
When he put on his clothes.
