Miss

( 74 )

Miss R--b--ns--n, No 14, Lisle Street,

Leciester Fields.

Thou can'st not see one wrinkle in my brow,

My eyes tho' dark, are bright and quick in

turning,

My beauty as the spring does yearly grow,

My flesh is soft and plump; my marrow

burning.

It is not surprising, the notice which

a lady, who as long _erected_ her standard

in the _field_ of _pleasure_, attracts from the

veterans in the same field. This is the case

of our heroine, now about twenty-eight

years of age, tall, rather lusty, and a

figure that speaks true symmetry; hand-

some, a slight tinge of the brunette in

her complexion, with very fine dark hair,

fine hazel eyes, very dark, and finely

arch'd eye brows; indeed, she has been

a very fine woman, and is far from being

in her wane of beauty; her hair, indeed,

is remarkably fine, and such a length, as

to be able to be interwoven with her _once

maidenhead thicket_, now grown to a _fine

bushy arbour_ surrounding the _blissful cell_ of

the blind sovereign of wanton sports,

where he reigns predominant over every

sense,

( 75 )

sense, and subjects all the rest to that of

feeling; here he keeps his court and holds

his revels; come then ye followers of Co-

mus, plunge your burning _plough shares_

within the betwiching circle, and slake

the hot breathing of untamed desire; here

dance the round of joy till sense grows

giddy in the maze, and taste the delicious

transports of maddening delight, till _pan-

ting nature striking the alarm_, proclaims a

_dying pause_ to her own music, and _pours_

forth the _flood_ of mingled rapture; she has

good breasts, and her limbs are finely

turn'd and proportioned; she is of a very

good disposition, and a most agreeable

companion, and is at present in keep-

ing by a Mr. M--lls; but being fond of

the _glow_ of youth, and the manly embrace

of full vigour, she indulges variety, and

is various in her expectation for so doing.

Miss L--nds--y, No 13, _Little Portland

Street_.

What pity 'tis so fine a face and form

Should suffer pride, the cankerworms of joy,

That beauty to deform.

If a warm son of Bacchus, flush'd with

the fullness of desire impetuous, Would wish

to

( 76 )

to melt a haughty temper down to the

standard of all complying love, let him

repair to this imperious golden hair'd

beauty, for however proud, she will stoop

to conquer any bold _invader_; and you

may lay her on her back by closing with

her in the athletic exercise of wrestling,

as she is very fond of Cupid's _hug_, and the

amorous _lock_, and will wait your _further_

attack with becoming spirit, and engage

your _champion_ of her _ring_, with a grasp,

till he is reduced to _bend_ beneath the

powerful squeeze, and _yield_ all the _metal_

he has about him to his circling antago-

nist, who, so far from behaving ungene-

rous, will give out in exchange as much,

or more rich treasure of another coin, in

token of mutual amity; in short she is as

smart a little girl as you will in general

see of her complexion and size, and bor-

rows her name from a gentleman who is

a very good friend, but does not expect

her to confine the whole of her favours to

him alone; but allows her to pick up her

odd guineas as she pleases.

Mrs.

( 77 )

Mrs L--w--s, _Upper Charlotte Street,

Rathbone Place_.

Sure nature cast one in her softest mould,

All mild and gentle, never made to scold.

West Indies gave birth to this daugh-

ter of Momus by Venus; the warmth of

the clime brought the charming girl's feel-

ing to maturity at an early period, and

a gentleman, whose name she assumes,

first _trod_ down _Hymen's_ fence, and made

her a perfect woman; but the natural

warmth of her constitution soon compell-

ed her to seek variety in our great mart;

she therefore left her good friend, and

now presents the world with a sweet

chearful disposition, fine dark hair, and

eyes of the same friendly hue; fine teeth,

is short and plump, and we have not had

her above eighteen months; she expects

three guineas for a whole night, but if you

make a short visit, one pound one shilling

is the least.
