Сторінка 48 - GIVE Chloe a bushel of horse-hair and wool, Of paste and pomatum a pound, Ten yards of gay ribbon to deck her sweet skull, And gauze to encompass it round. Of all the bright colours the rainbow displays Be those ribbons which hang on her head, Be her flounces adapted to make the folks gaze, And about the whole work be they spread.
