| Citation | AWM.737.050 22-29 Dec 1737:31 (939) AN EPITAPH. Here Fanny lies interr'd; ah! why, Ye Gods, was Fanny born to die? A female Fanny was, 'tis true, But yet no females arts she knew; No visits she receiv'd, or pay'd, Nor ever stroll'd to masquerade; Court, opera, park, and play and ball-- The prudent Fanny scorn'd them all. . . . [22 lines, Fanny was a "harmless fawn."] |
