. . .written extempore by a lady.
To the lawyer who pronounced an oration to the Free Masons
on Saturday last.
  You said sir on a late occasion,
  When speaking forth your fine oration,
  Ladies could never Masons be,
  Alas!  they fail in secrecy.
  Then with your Brothers pass your life, sir,
  Without a mistress or a wife, sir;
  Lawyers with Masons ought to dwell, 
  For both have much unfit to tell.
