THE Fortune—Hunter's Mental Reservation.

Madam, your Eyes (or Diamonds) shine so bright,
I'm captivated with the dazzling Sight:
You have ten thousand Charms, (Pounds I should say)
Those Eyes (or Bags) have stol'n my Heart away.
In pity then some Comfort to me give,
Pay all my Debts, and keep me while I live.
