Dear

In great dolour complaining tho:

Quia amore langueo.”

And as she dreams she gets paler and leaner.
Then be off to your Dream, with his fly-away hat,
I’ll stay with the girls who are happy and fat.”

But my dear Mary Moore,
None other knows what pleasures man
At table or in bed.
What shall I do for pretty girls
Now my old bawd is dead?”
