Thus Delia shines in Places general,
Is never missing where the Men are all;
Goes ev'n to Church with Godly Airs,
To meet good Company at Pray'rs:
Where she devoutly plays her Fan,
Looks up to Heav'n, but thinks on Man:
You sit at Home: enjoy your [1]Cousin,
While Hearts are offer'd by the Dozen:
0! born above your Sex to rise,
With Youth, Wealth, Beauty, Titles—Wise!

O! Lady bright, did ne'er you mark yet,
In Country Fair, or Country Market,
A Beau, whose Eloquence might charm ye,
Enlisting Soldiers for the Army:
He flatters every well-built Youth,
And tells him every thing but—Truth.
