Dear Sir you remember when Herod of Jewry | B |
Had given a ball how a shocking old fury | B |
Demanded so bent was the vixen on slaughter | C |
The head of St John at the hand of her daughter | C |
Now do not detest me nor hold me in dread | D |
Because like King Herod I send you a head | D |
Not a saint's by the bye although taken from life | E |
But a head of my friend by the hand of my wife | E |
