Reply To Some Verses Of J. M. B. Pigot, Esq., On The Cruelty Of His Mistress [1]

1. Why, Pigot, complain
Of this damsel's disdain,
Why thus in despair do you fret?
For months you may try,
Yet, believe me, a sigh [i]
Will never obtain a coquette.

2. Would you teach her to love?
For a time seem to rove;
At first she may frown in a pet;
But leave her awhile,
She shortly will smile,
And then you may kiss your coquette.

3. For such are the airs
Of these fanciful fairs,
They think all our homage a debt:
Yet a partial neglect [ii]
Soon takes an effect,
And humbles the proudest coquette.

4. Dissemble your pain,
And lengthen your chain,
And seem her hauteur to regret; [iii]
If again you shall sigh,
She no more will deny,
That yours is the rosy coquette.
