ous size,
She never slumber'd in her pew--

_But when she shut her eyes._

Her love was sought, I do aver,
By twenty beaux and more;
The King himself has follow'd her--
[Illustration (painting, pic20.jpg)]
[Illustration (drawing, pic21trans.gif)]
_When she has walk'd before._
[Illustration (drawing, pic22trans.gif)]
But now, her wealth and finery fled,
Her hangers-on cut short-all:
The Doctors found, when she was dead
_Her last disorder mortal._
[Illustration (drawing, pic23trans.gif)]
Let us lament, in sorrow sore,
For Kent Street well may say,
That had she lived a twelvemonth more,--
_She had not died to-day._
