Is it not time think you to make a stand, Nor longer to submit to man's command, When all that they have done for ages past Is found to need a grand Reform at last? Ladies! let's rise, 'tis time that we resist, And shew that excellence which they have miss'd. With female guides what nation can feel terror?--And we'll ne'er own it, --though we are in error. We'll shew you Ways and Means to serve the State, And make you men acknowledge we are great;--Kneel for our favour, --stoop for our caress, --And think our nod your greatest happiness. But, ere I overturn your projects sinister, Let me remember I'm not yet Prime Minister; But a petitioner for your support To the fair Claimant on our little Court. If she has touch'd your hearts, --has drawn a tear, --Or rais'd a laugh, --you'll give her welcome here;--If she's sustain'd the ancient Drama's laws, --Th' attempt, tho' not the deed, will plead her cause;--And if some trifling error you should find, --Kemember she's a woman, --and be kind. LXIII. PROLOGUE TO A JUVENILE PERFORMANCE OF " PUS9 IN BOOTS," AT CHRISTMAS. If Birds and Beasts May have their Feasts, And eat and drink their fill;--If Insects small May have their Ball, As ev'ry Butterfly will;--Sure we may meet And have our treat, Our frolic and our play; Eat sugar'd bun, And in our fun May join as well as they. If Mice may sing Like birds on wing;--If Learned Pigs may teach;--If Monkeys chose To wear men's clothes, And Kavens learn'd to preach; If Parrots seek Like men to speak, And Cats to write their wills; If Dogs and Bears Learn dancing airs, And Horses walk quadrilles: If facts like these You mortals please, When thus perform'd by brutes;--You won't condemn Our copying them, In playing " Puss in Boots." Then should our...
