Her Covent Garden Ladies Entry:

'Ads bobs she's wond'rous pretty!
Her looks are almost jetty;
She's a finer wench than Betty,
And lo! her eyes are blue!

Is Major Bembow's address to a pretty girl in the Flitch of bacon; and would not be an unapt description of this lady, if she did not vary a little, and more in conformity to nature than a poet, in having black eyes as well as black hair. But nature was not obliged to make rhyme, as Parson B was, or perhaps she would have had blue eyes. She is tall and genteel, with a divine face and neck. Her foot and leg, (which by the bye I think a very great merit in a woman), are remarkably handsome. She never swears, and drinks but little; her age is about twenty. Let those who wish to know her qualifications as un coucheuse, try her; for we will not on all occasions kiss and tell. She is very moderate in her demands and has not been on the town much above a twelve-month.
