ANSWERED BY DR. SHERIDAN

Your house of hair, and lady's hand,

At first did put me to a stand.

I have it now--'tis plain enough--

Your hairy business is a muff.

Your engine fraught with cooling gales,

At once so like your masts and sails;

Your thing of various shape and hue

Must be some painted toy, I knew;

And for the rhyme to you're the man,

What fits it better than a fan?
