| accosted by various men | B |
| while in a dance | C |
| the warring desires thus | D |

| a battlefield | F |
| hunger comes arrayed with | G |
| red plumes to befit | H |
| his appetites | I |
| sensuality somewhat | J |
| decked out as a dandy | K |
| in a mauve waistcoat | K |
| and of course there is | L |
| Fear the most thwarted | K |
| of the suitors bejewelled with a | M |
| flashing sabre rattling it from | N |
| the tail of his skinny stick horse | O |
| the pale charger riding | P |
| to intercept the beautiful courtesan Sleep | Q |
| bestowing her favours illicitly | K |
| wherein she would but choose | R |
