FEMALE REVENGE.

Reading edition

"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.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
