Verse reads:
"Honest Sir John from Shropshire just return'd - | To meet his Wife, his anxious bosom burn'd | When Lo, she came in Virgin white array'd | And like stage heroines follow'd by a Maid
Sweetly she spouted forth each studied word, | Illusive shade of my beloved Lord - | Patient Sir John attended to the whole, | Then shook his head - and cried "Alas poor Soul!"
