Female Revenge.

Topics: classic

"Revenge is sweet, especially to women." - Byron.             I heard Bill say to-day, Mary,             That you are a charming fairy,             And that to town he'd give you drive,             But just as sure as you're alive,             He does intend to have the bliss,             Of stealing from your lips a kiss.             I'll let him drive me now, Jane,             His efforts they will all be vain,             I hate him, and I him defy,             And anger flashed from her eye,             The monster's wiles I will defeat,             Peck of strong onions I will eat.
