Songs Compleat,
Katy's Beauty. On Madam K. W.
KAtfs a Beauty surpassing,
She's a Sweet Garden to pass in,
In Town there is not like a Lass in,
So Sweet, so Charming is she.
Her Eyes like Stars do so twinkle,
Her Face is smooth, without wrinkle,
Her Chin's adorn'd with a Dimple,
Like the Charms above her Knee.
Her Lips as Red as a Rose is,
And round and pretty her Nose is ;
Her Breath's a sweet mixture of Posies ;
None on Earth's compar'd to she.
Her Belly's a Hill of Sweet Pleasure,
In Bush enclos'd lies the Treasure,
If you once make but a Seasure,
Your lost in an Extasie.
