Songs, Duets 5 Chorusses,
fyc.
Act I.
SONG— Clarice. [Kelly.]
(Miss Kelly).
I.
When fickle man for woman sighs,
And finds her heart consenting;
Too soon he scorns the easy prize,
And leaves her lo repenting :
Then, vain are all her arts to please;
You feel no pity — Do you ?
But cry — " Good woman, cease to leaze,
'* And, here's my service to you.*'
II.
Then while my hand and choice are free.
To man I'll make resistance;
I'll teach you men my slaves to be,
And keep your proper distance ;
For while 1 lead you in my chain
You feel no triumph — Do you ?
Just now, good Sir, you plead in vain,
And so,— my service (o you !
