⟨tisfied⟩, are the never-failing attendants of ⟨justice⟩.
I am, Sir,
Your very humble Servant,
A Grateful Magdalen.

COME all ye servant maids draw near,
While I my griefs relate,
⟨And⟩ when the cruel tale you hear,
O learn to shun my fate!
⟨For⟩ I tho' born of humble race,
By curs'd ambition led,
⟨Aspir'd⟩ to fill Rebecca's place,
And shar'd my master's bed,
⟨For⟩ this I scorn'd poor Billy's love,
Altho, a parson's son;
Whose ever gentle manners prove
His heart was all my own.
My russet gown was laid aside,
And all my best put on;
