[Yet, dear Poll, you may]

[OMITTED]

XIV

Yet, dear Poll, you may
Suffer J---y G---y
For to S---h you for his Play,
Which has rais'd your Grandeur;
Before which
You would S---h
Near Fleet-Ditch,
P---le was your Pindar:
Then don't you vaunt it over all,
Then don't you vaunt it over all,
Tho' you are pretty Poll.
