the most decided 1t abounds with wit and many
happy hits at local foiss and wholesome inuendoes ct
public men ar measures yet there is sraning for

Of poets and thinks her husband shares her tage She
is Mortified to frd him . gourmGn6, gambler and Q
dueis She rpli ely resolves to make herself mirror
