She went from opera, park, assembly, play, To morning walks, and prayers three hours a day. To part her time 'twixt reading and bohea, To muse, and spill her solitary tea, Or o'er cold coffee trifle with the spoon, Count the slow clock, and dine exact at noon.
'Epistle to Miss Blount, on her leaving the Town, after the Coronation' (of King George I, 1715) (1717)
