To serve a tasteless Court twelve years in vain!
Fain would I think our female friend [Henrietta] sincere,
’Till Bob [Sir Robert Walpole], the poet’s foe, possess’d her ear.
Did female virtue e’er so high ascend,
To lose an inch of favour for a friend?
Say, had the Court no better place to choose
For thee, than make a dry-nurse of thy Muse?
How cheaply had thy liberty been sold,
To squire a royal girl of two years old:
In leading strings her infant steps to guide,
Or with her go-cart amble by her side!
