WOURE fifty years old, Lady Dolly,-^ Tis time you learnt how to behave ;Oh model of middle-aged folly,When will you grow grave ! Youve brought out a couple of daughtersWhom every one ventures to snub ; I heard them called wegula snawtas Last night—at a club ! To see you all prancing together Is almost as sad as absurd ;This moralist hardly knows whether To sigh or to gird. I never like scanty-topped dresses On any girl over yours, with your 7-oiige and bought tresses, Arent fit to be seen !. 77 Go home, take to sewing and knitting,Make jackets and socks for the poor Give up all this flirting and skitting,Turn grey and demure. Accept without tricks or complainingThe changes that nature decrees, Nor vainly insist upon drainingLife down to the lees.
