Her Covent Garden Ladies Entry:

Her eyes enflam'd and sparkling too;
Her cheeks, the rose and lilly's hue;
Her nose was strait, and just its height,
Her lips than coral far more bright;
Her breasts two little halls of snow,
In which two vivid rubies glow;
Tho' one might span her slender waist,
Her thighs would scarcely be embrac'd,
Her taper leg by far excell'd,
All that was ever yet beheld.

What our warm poet here imagined, is in Miss E---ds realized; for her face has the health of Hebe, with the delicacy of Aglae. She seems designed as the handmaid of love, and the servant of pleasure. Her eyes sparkle, and emanate the flames which seem to glow in her bosom; and inspire that life, fire, and vivacity which animates her conversation.

Her make is as elegant as imagination can paint. She is a very agreeable companion, and remarkable for her generosity; so that she is an object well worthy of the pursuit of a man of pleasure; yet in that pursuit, if he wishes the true pleasure resulting from the society of a desirable woman, he must prevent her drinking too much. She is about nineteen, and expects a brace of shiners.
