Citation | CC-H.780.017 21 Mar 1780:33 (791) Our Fathers were wont when they wanted a mate To prize sense and virtue above a high pate: Alas! our fond Fathers are most of them dead. And such are their Sons in this age, it is said, That nothing can now excite the soft passion, But girls without brains, drest high in the fashion. |
