Upon one that promised me Four Cravats, boasting he had Fifty.
Sure, (Will.) you got, by some facele designs,All Danaus Daughters for your Valentines.
Twas but a dream I fear, and truly I
Did never dream you would tell such a lye.
If you have Ten? thank an industrious VVife,
One Hempen one, wou'd serve you all your life.
You promis'd me Four, in a high carouse,
The Mountain swel'd & it brought forth a Mouse.
