 | The three tours of Doctor Syntax |  |
Thus, as she vehemently prated, And the delighted Doctor rated,
From a small pocket in his coat, He unobserv'd drew forth a note,
And throwing it upon the table, He said, “My dear, you'll now be able
To keep your mantua-maker quiet; So cease, I beg this idle riot:
And, if you'll not make such a pother, I'll treat you with its very brother:
Be kind—and I'll not think it much To shew you half-a-dozen such.”
