_bottom_, but still wishes for a partner to be
concerned in the business. Her person is
pleasing, she has the roses in her cheeks,
encircled with beds of never fading lilys;
is as strait as a pine of two years growth,
though not quite so tall; her locks shine
like black maiden hair, and she is as full
of juice as a _ripe amber goose-berry_; she
takes a guinea to be _engrafted_ upon, and
is a very agreeable sprig of _hare-hound_.
She is much esteemed by the lovers of
_planting_, for having a beautiful show of
_navel-wort_, and her fondness for _rampions_
and _amber vitae_, she despises _fool-stones_,
_cuckow pintle_, _Jews ears_, or _birch_; but
particularly likes _Adam's Apple-tree_, _sensi-
tive plant_, _stich-wort_, _nutmegs_, and such
valuable productions. To all such she is
free, for her _lips_ opens her _lady's mantle_,
encloses them in her _convolvulus_, pours
down a whole volley of _seed_, and never
quits them whilst they have a _drop_ of _sap_.

Miss Louisa M-ns-n, No. 12, _Wells-street_.
What various charms can M-ns-n boast,
By nature thus befriended;
Whose legs impart a charm when cross'd,
And charming when extended.
Observe her well, the oblique glance,
the lascivious look, the frequent heave of
the
( 125 )
the breasts fully speak her inward feel-
ings; but can any of our readers account
for her immoderate fondness for sugar
plumbs? it must certainly be that that
induced, her to take the famous little
Jemmy B--tl--r into her train, the
_upper mouth_ he keeps constantly supplied
with its favourite food; but we fear
_Jemmy_ has not parts sufficient to supply
the _lower_ with a tenth part of _its_ neces-
sary food. She therefore solicits the
favours of the good natured public for
the necessary supplies to that inchanting
spot. She is of a good size, and every
limb well proportioned. Knowing the
beauty of her hand and arm, she takes
particular care they shall not pass un-
noticed for want of being seen; convinced
of the delicate proportion of her leg and
foot, she is very careful their covering
shall not discredit them, and has a
pleasing knack of keeping them con-
stantly exposed to sight; and being
taught by the eyes of her admirers the
influence her neck and breasts command,
she covers them with so thin a veil, that
the smallest blue branch is easily
covered; her eyes she cannot hide, nor
does she wish it; they are plain indications
of
( 126 )
of nature's central spot, and beam with
all the fire of the _enchanting spot_. Two
guineas is her price, and should Jemmy
be there he must retire if she thinks fit.
