"You say that oxen, asses, hounds, and horses
Can be tried out on various ploys and courses;
And basins too, and dishes when you buy them,
Spoons, chairs, and furnishings, a man can try them
As he can try a suit of clothes, no doubt, But no one ever tries a woman out
Until he's married her; old dotard crow!
And then you say she lets her vices show."
