TO R. P. H. H****Y, ESQ;
You ask, was I to change my life, 
What kind of girl I'd take to wife?
One that's fair, genteel and pretty, 
And on trifles can be witty;
Not volatile, yet ever gay, 
And on the harpsichord can play, 
Accompanying it with song---
Melliffluous flowing from her tongue;
. . . [6 more lines]
[signed] T. K.
