BEAUTY AND FASHION.
A Repartee.
. . . [1 line of Latin, signed Tib.]
Says beauty to fashion, as they sat at the toilet, 
If I give you a charm, you surely will spoil it;
When you take it in hand, there's such murth'ring and
mangling, 
'Tis so metaporphos'd by your fiddling and fangling, 
. . . [52 more lines]
[lines 53-54] The route, the assembly, the play-house will
tel, 
'Tis I form the beau, and I finish the belle:. . .
