5. A Simile to express the same.
So have I seen a batter'd Beau,
By Age and Claps grown cold as Snow,
Receive the Filth which he ejects;
She soon would find the same Effects,
By Age and Claps grown cold as Snow,
Receive the Filth which he ejects;
She soon would find the same Effects,
A dismal shedding of her Locks,
And, if no Leprosy, a Pox.
And, if no Leprosy, a Pox.
