Wonderful Admiration! &c.
I'LL sing you a song of a modern date,
Concerning a damsel who had a good estate;
Rich, young, and beautiful, whose name ⟨it⟩ Kate;
She was mightily teaz'd with admirers of late.
Admiration! admiration!
Oh, the wonderful admiration!
The first was a Beau, much resembling an ape.
That had broken its chain and made its escape;
he came into her presence with many a scrape.
Cock sure of the maid from his delicate shape.
Affection, &c.
The next was a Scot, who came staggering drunk
Just as he had quitted his bottle and punk;
But his half rotten carcase so dev'lishly stunk,
That his hopes were all blasted, and prospects were sunk.
Intoxication, &c.
