| The Young-Man's Answer / To the Politick-Maids Device. / If all young-men were as he would be, / Maidens should mould above the knee: / And let them sweat in their own S in, / They are more false than men have been: / And yet you see what here's in hand, / How they do speak against Young-Men. | |
