To all you ladies now at BathA
And eke ye beaux to youB
With aching heart and wat'ry eyesC
I bid my last adieuB
-
Farewell ye nymphs who waters sipD
Hot reeking from the pumpsE
While music lends her friendly aidF
To cheer you from the dumpsE
-
Farewell ye wits who prating standG
And criticise the fairH
Yourselves the joke of men of senseI
Who hate a coxcomb's airH
-
Farewell to Deard's and all her toysJ
Which glitter in her shopK
Deluding traps to girls and boysJ
The warehouse of the fopL
-
Lindsay's and Hayes's both farewellM
Where in the spacious hallN
With bounding steps and sprightly airH
I've led up many a ballN
-
Where Somerville of courteous mienO
Was partner in the danceP
With swimming Haws and Brownlow blitheQ
And Britton pink of FranceP
-
Poor Nash farewell may fortune smileR
Thy drooping soul reviveS
My heart is full I can no moreT
John bid the coachman driveS

Lady Mary Wortley Montagu
