9 Sep 1782:12,13 (1463)
From a London Magazine.  A consultation of the four and
twenty letters.  Gentlemen,
 [a few lines beginning with each letter of the alphabet
describing the misfortunes of matrimony, including a song at
M:]
  M being musically inclined, entertained us with a song.
  Of all the plagues beneath the sun,
  To love's the greatest curse:
  If one's deny'd then he's undone;
  If not, 'tis ten times worse.
. . . [9 more 4-line verses; then 11 more lines]
