The Two Harlots.

An Epigram.

Engaging Phillis to her Arms decoy'd
A Spark of Chloe's, she had long enjoy'd,
Hussy, quoth Chloe, you're a treach'rous Jade,
I'd give you half my Cloaths, or half my Bread,
But not an Inch of my Gallant, you W**re.
And then the Rival's Coif the Fury tore.
Spare me, quoth Phil. forgive the Wrong I've done,
Two is too many for so dull a Drone,
I must confess he's not enough for one.
