ON THE SAME.
Of injur’d fame, and mighty wrongs receiv’d,
Chloe complains, and wondrouſly ’s aggriev’d.
That free, and laviſh of a beauteous face,
The faireſt and the fouleſt of her race;4
She ’s mine, or thine; and ſtrolling up and down
Sucks in more filth than any ſink in Town,
I not deny; this I have ſaid, ’t is true:
What wrong! to give ſo bright a nymph her due.8
