The City Macaronies drinking Asses Milk, at the Lacteum, in
St. George's Fields. A Dialogue.
1st Mac. Demme! if this is not the most perdigious ingenius
thought that ever was thought of.
2d Mac. Quite immense, egad. I'll bring Lady Betty and
Lady Bridget; they will positively like it, to a charm.
. . . [20 lines of inebriated discussion]
Ass Boy. What the devil are those things? Are they monkies
or men?
Ass Woman. By their squeaking I take them to be Opera
Singers; I am sure they are not men.
