A YOUNG LADY'S COMPLAINT ON THE DEATH OF HER SQUIRREL.
Since other shed the briny tear, 
And heave for birds the sigh sincere;
Since some for lap dogs grieve and wail, 
And tell their tender moving tale;
. . . [26 more lines]
Talk'd nonsense all the tedious day, 
Escorted me to ball and play, 
. . . [18 lines follow]
