    And tailors' lays be longer than their bill!
    While punctual beaux reward the grateful notes,
    And pay for poems--when they pay for coats.

As if thou e'er wert angry
But with thy tailor! and yet that poor shred
Can bring more to the making up of a man,
Than can be hoped from thee; thou art his creature;
And did he not, each morning, new create thee,
Thou'dst stink and be forgotten.

Thy gown? Why, ay--come, tailor, let us see't.
O mercy, God, what masquing stuff is there?

Why, what's a devil's name, tailor, call'st thou this?
