Her Covent Garden Ladies Entry:

I am the lass whose ever open arms,
Both day and night stand ready to receive
The fierce assaults of Briton's am'rous sons.

This painted puppet is at present the kept mistress of a Jew, (Mr. M-— by name;) before her acquaintance commenced with this son of Levi she promenaded the common road, and thought a guinea no disagreeable pocket piece; now she figures a much higher rate performer on the cyprian stage, and will not admit a visiter under two or three guineas. She has a lilly complexion, without the assistance of art, but nature forgot to plant roses in the same bed; however, by the friendly assistance of rouge, she blends the two in a very judicious manner, and sets off her face in a very delicate stile; her hair is a light brown, the eye-brows form a beautiful arch of the same glossy hue, and half encompasses a pair of languishing peepers, the true tint of an Italian sky. Two years have only elapsed since she learnt the use of arbor vitæ, now she has just arrived to a state of proficiency.
