_A Rebus on Lady of Quality, on a Glass at the Old Devil Tavern._

What fly from her Eyes, and the Place whither I
Must soon be convey'd to, unless she comply,
Is the Name of the Beauty for whom I could die.

_N. B._ Darts and _Shafts_ fly from her Eyes, and if one dies,
one must be _bury_'d.

_Under the Rebus on Lady Sh - - - bury, at the Devil Tavern, is this;_

What opens a Door, and a Word of Offence,
Tell the Name of a Nymph of Wit, Beauty, and Sense.

Supposed to be for Miss _Ke - ly_.

_From the Window of a Chamber in the Inner Temple._

For dear _Venilla_ in my Arms,
I'd scorn all other female Charms;
Ten thousand Beauties she can spare,
And still be _Fairest_ of the _Fair_.

_From innumerable Windows._

Like _Mars_ I'll fight, like _Antony_ I'll love,
I'll drink like _Bacchus_, and I'll whore like _Jove_.

_From the Apollo, the large Dancing-Room in the Devil Tavern, written
when some were engaged in a particular Country-Dance._

This Dance foretells that Couple's Life,
Who mean to dance as Man and Wife;
As here, they'll first with Vigour set,
Give Hands, and turn whene'er they meet;
But soon will quit their former Track,
Cast off and end in Back to Back.

_From the Angel Tavern, Temple-Bar._

'Tis hard! 'tis wonderous hard!
That the Life of a Man
Should be but a Span,
And that of a Woman a Yard!

_From a Watch-Maker's Window, Fleet-Street._

Here Time is bought and sold: 'Tis plain, my Friend,
My Clocks and Watches shew what I intend;
For you I Time correct,
My Time I spend;
By Time I live,
But not one Inch will lend,
Except you pay the ready down or send:
I trust no Time,
Unless the Times do mend.

_On a Watch-Case in a Gentleman's Pocket, given him by a Lady._

The Wretched pray to make more Haste,
The Happy say we fly too fast;
Therefore impossible to know,
Whether I go too fast or slow.

S. M.

_At Hollyhead, I suppose, written by some Creation-Mender._

Arra, now what signifies the making the two great Lights?
The Sun to light the Day, and the Moons to light the Nights:
For the Sun in the Day-Time there is no Occasion,
Because I can see very well after my Persuasion:
But for the Moons, they are very good in a dark Night,
Because when we cannot see they give us a Light.
