A Description of his Mistress.

She's young, and She's tender,
She's handsomely slender,
She's genteel, She's pretty,
Good-natur'd, and witty:
Adorn'd with those Graces,
We want in some Faces;
But moves,—O most sweetly!
Then dances so neatly!
No Scandal she tattles,
But agreeably prattles;
Learns Love and such Fancies,
From Plays, and Romances.
Is proud, but a little,
And my Soul to a Tittle.
