Sent to Mr. H. by an old gentleman, at the time he courted me.
Adam alone could not be easy,But he must have a wife, an't please you;
But how did he procure this wife
To chear his solitary life?
Why from a rib out of his side
Was form'd this necessary bride;
And how did he the pain beguile?
Pho, he slept sweetly all the while:
But when the rib was re-apply'd
In woman's form to Adam's side,
How then, I pray you, did it answer?
He never slept so sweet again Sir.
