P.S.

Have mislaid the two paragraphs—can't stop to look,
But both describe charming—both Footman and Cook.

She, “decidedly pious”—with pathos deplores
The' increase of French cook'ry, and sin on our shores;
And adds—(while for further accounts she refers
To a great Gospel preacher, a cousin of hers,)
That “though some make their Sabbaths mere matter-of-fun days,
She asks but for tea and the Gospel, on Sundays.”

Has late been to Cambridge—to Trinity College;
Serv'd last a young gentleman, studying divinity,
But left—not approving the morals of Trinity.
