Citation | PPOST.769.006 16 Jan 1769:151, 152 (4) A RECEIPT FOR A MODERN DRESS. Pin a small bugle cap on, as big as a crown, Snout it off with a ribbon, vulgo dict, a pomooon. Let your powder by grey, and braid up your hair. Like the mane of a colt, to be sold at a fair. . . . [13 lines] On slippers of velvet, set gold a-la-baube, But mount on French heels when you go to a dance, 'Twas the fashion in England, and likewise in France. |
