CHOICE PO I TR Y.

The BIOOnler.

The BIOOnler.
The saucy maid may toss her head,
When she her hustle bitches on;
Be mine to praise in artless lays,
The graceful girl with breeches on.
The petticoat no more shall float,
On limbs whose shape bewitches one;
But in its place, with modest grace,
Those limbs shall hold the breeches on.
The bucks and beaus turn up their nose
At costly robes with patches on
But goodness me! what if they see
Such beauty spots the breeches on.
Ye muslin dresses, white and thin,
With fairy finger'd stitches on,
fear your day has passed away
Since woman put the breeches on.
All well-a-day, the Bard may say,
Shall one bestow his kisses on
A shameless maid who's not afraid
To put pair Of breeches on.
She'll make him feel from head to heel,
Whatever else he bitches on,
He has no right, by day or night,
To put pair of breeches on?
We always see the graces three
Without rag the witches on,
But o. Cad Cooks, how would it look
Should each one put the breeches on!
When woman's wit is stirred O bit,
The first reform she pitches on,
Is how she may, with least delay,
Just draw pair of breeches on!
