ON MISS. FANNY CARELESS,
Careless by name, and careless by nature
Careless of shape, and careless of feature.
Careless in dress, and careless in air;
Careless in riding in coach or in chair.
. . . [18 lines]
Were you careful for once to return me your love,
I car'd not how careless to others you prove.
I then should be careless how careless you were;
And the more careless you, still the less I should care,
[signed] Y._I._
