Testo originale: Blood of Dunder, I would give her one good Prussian stroking

Katharine, that cap of yours becomes you not; Off with that bauble, 'tis my royal will

I'm in a good humour to give her a dram of right Holland's

Amman! Amman! Anglois, Alla, Alla

Das is de devil, to give up all again

O, by Gar! if Miraberu was but live! Sacre Dieu

I see my Lances are but straws; My strength is weak, my weakness past compare; And am asham'd, that Women are so simple To offer War when they should kneel for Peace.

Heigho! to have myself thus rid to death, by a Boy & his playmates, merely to frighten an Old Woman -- I wish I was back in Hanover, to get myself a belly full

Pub'd April 20th, 1791, by S.W. Fores Piccadilly
