below which descends the smooth track
of a belly, which conveys to the mind an
idea of animated ivory, at the bottom
of which is display'd a lovely chesnut
fringe, terminated by a pouting _slash hole_,
which is far from being insensible to the
raptures of its _grisly antagonist_, and with
pleasure _opens_ its _mouth_ to receive his well
erected crest, who _enters_ with his accus-
tomed pride, but soon returns with _fal-
len head_, as if conscious of its presumption;
but the _mistress_ of this formidable _enemy_
is well acquainted with the means of re-
storing life to the _vanquished memmber_, but
only to make it more sensible of its ina-
bility. Mercenary views are far from
what she aims at; she can give and
receive a _luscious_ share of pleasures
of _copulation_; but beginning to know the
accustom'd ways of the baser sort of
men, and not being always confident of
the honour of her _paramour_, if he is a
stranger,
( 137 )
stranger, she must receive her compli-
ment of half a guinea, or a guinea, ac-
cording to the length of the intended
visit, before she proceeds to any kind of
business.

Her every thought, and wishes, and desires,
Agree with yours, and burn with mutual fires.
This merry, little lively tit appears to
be about sixteen, and is never to be met
without a smile upon her countenance,
and a frisky song at her tongue's end;
she is very short, a brunette in com-
plexion, with a lustfully sparkling eye,
and jetty ringlets down her back. The sis-
ter hills, with their bewitching coral
pinnacles, are irresistibly firm, and speak
their silent language very forcibly to the
heart. The grove beneath, shading the
font of life, is drest in sable, and se-
cures the _internal mansion_ from any sud-
den _attack_. She is generally very expe-
ditious in dying, therefore we would ad-
vise her antagonist to push the warm con-
test
( 138 )
est with agility, or it will not be a _dead_
heat; she is a very willing and amorous
bedfellow, never against repetition, and
such a good natured, and good tem-
per'd creature, that she seems to say to
every one,
With thee secur'd,--I'd smile at fortune's
frowns,
And all her threats defy,--nor court her
smiles.

Your husband must come from Brobdignag.
