| Citation | CJ-NH.781.067 6 Dec 1781:41 (736) HUMOROUS DESCRIPTION OF A MODERN HEAD-DRESS. A cap like a bat, (Which was once a cravat) Part gracefully platted and pinn'd is; Part stuck upon gauze, Resembles Machaws, And all the fine birds of the Indies. Put above all the rest, A bold Amazon's crest Waves nodding from shoulder to shoulder; At once to surprize, And to ravish all eyes, To frighten and charm the beholder. . . . [2 more verses] |
