“Having interrd her Infant-birth,
The watry ground that late did mourn,
Was strewd with flowrs for the return
Of the wishd Bridegroom of the earth.”

With some friend that has the wit
Not to allow his looks to tell
When I am unintelligible.
Fifteen apparitions have I seen;
The worst a coat upon a coat-hanger.”
