PL.775.013
11 Mar 1775:21 (7)
An effeminate Maccaroni of distinction a few evenings ago
picked up a very smart girl, and went home with her to her
lodgings; after some time, the lady proposed to dress
herself in his cloaths, which were very rich, and his sword,
and that he should dress in hers. He agreed to it, and she,
when dressed, looked much more like the man than he did, and
he very like a woman. They thus agreed to go to the play
together, where having been a short time, to avoid giving
any suspicion to the company in the same box, she went out
under pretence of fetching him some capillaire, and
immediately decamped. The poor Maccaroni in peticoats, was
then under the necessity of marching home, and was some time
in persuading the servants, that he was their master, before
they would admit him.
