Yon will remember a famous example— Arthur Ask’d Amy’s Affection,— Bet, Being Benjamin’s Bride, Coolly Cut Charles’s Connection ; Deborah, Dicky Denied. Eleanor’s Eve, Efficacious, Frederick** Fatality Feels ; Giles Gained Georgiana—Good Gracious ! Harry Hates Helen’s High Heels. Isaac Is Isabel’s Idol, Jenny Jeers Jonathan Jones ; Kath ri n e Knows Knock-Kneed Kit Kreidal, Loves leering Lucy’s Long-bones. Mary Meets Mortifications, Nicholas Nancy Neglects. Oliver’s Odd Observations Prove Peter Poor Patty Protects ? (Quaker Quinailian’s Queer Quibbles Red Rachel’s Reasons Resist; Soft Simon’s Sympathy Scribbles Tales To Tall Tabitha Twist. Urs’la Unthinking, Undoing Volatile Valentine’s Vest, William’s Wild Wickeder Wooing ’Xceeds Youthful Zelica’s Zest. Much more sensibly the scribbler might have written: Suratura Suvos Sighs, Since Suratura Stimulates Sanity, So Securing Seraphic Serenity.
