Stand too't WHETSTON-PARK Ladies: or; / The Countrey Lasses farewel to Sorrow. / Maids, here's a Caution how to gain rich Talents, / Do, as I've done, keep Company with Gallants; / By which I'm rais'd from mean to high degree, / In being to young Heirs and Gallants free: / I fear no Colours but will stand it out, / The worst can be, is the Covent-Garden-Gout.
