What Soft Cherubic Creatures
What Soft Cherubic Creatures
These Gentlewomen are
One would as soon assault a Plush
Or violate a Star
Such Dimity Convictions
A Horror so refined
Of freckled Human Nature
Of Deity ashamed
It’s such a common Glory
A Fisherman’s Degree
Redemption Brittle Lady
Be so ashamed of Thee
