ST. JOHN:

And who, thou antiquated crone, art thou?

I ne'er forget a face, but names I can't

So well remember. I have seen thee oft.

When in the middle season of the night,

Curved with a cucumber, or knotted hard

With an eclectic pie, I've striven to keep

My head and heels asunder, thou has come,

With sociable familiarity,

Into my dream, but not, alas, to bless.
