ITH HONOUR, FAITH, AND WITH THE EYE, TRIFLE NO On ne peut decrotter sa robe sans em-porter le poil. … NONE CAN CLEAN THEIR DRESS FROM STAIN,BUT SOME BLEMISH WILL REMAIN. Ive fplafhd and foild my gown,With this gadding through the town ! How bedraggled is my fkirt, Trapefing through the bye-ftreets dirt : In what a ftate for me to be, From this Town-life gaiety !
