Excerpt from At the Sign, of the Lyre

The Ladies of St. James's.

A Proper New Ballad of the Country and the Town.

"Phyllida amo ante alias" Virg.

The ladies of St. James's
Go swinging to the play;
Their footmen run before them,
With a "Stand by! Clear the way!"
But Phyllida, my Phyllida!
She takes her buckled shoon,
When we go out a-courting
Beneath the harvest moon.

The ladies of St. James's
Wear satin on their backs;
They sit all night at Ombre,
With candles all of wax:
But Phyllida, my Phyllida!
She dons her russet gown.
And runs to gather May dew
Before the world is down.
