lirik lagu ghizela rowe - charles sackville - a true account of the birth and conception
when monmouth the chaste read those impudent lines
which ty’d her dear monkey so fast by the loins
show’d his jackanapes tricks and his apish false smiles
and set him a chattering aloft on the tiles
she saw with a fright
howe’er they came by’t
the rogues had describ’d pretty whirligig right
and none can be certain, when scandals begin
to draw so near home, but that they shall come in
she heard that the nine ladies’ turn would be next
and fearing some bungler should mangle the text
and paint her sweet person like some hagged elf
she wisely contriv’d how to draw it herself;
and luckily hit
on a method most fit
at once to display both her virtue and wit
not doubting to have from herself a good word
and thus she bespoke the kind help of her lord:
“methinks the same nine which they count so well writ
has nothing of air, bon sens, or l’esprit
the numbers so rough and so harsh the cadence
as would blister a mouth embellished in france
come pour amus~m~nt
let us make a song
and so do ourselves right, whome’er we do wrong
we’ll give a beau tour to the feminine nine
among whom my prudence and virtue shall shine
you yourself shall appear the great turk of the scene
and i’ll recommend you so far to the queen
and soothe the vain humor to which you incline
as to make you belov’d by two of the nine
and that’s very fair
for a poor, sickly peer
who to my certain knowledge has nothing to spare;
and since these lampoons are the wit of the times
i’ll furnish the sense if you’ll tag it with rhymes.”
her spouse, fir’d at this, scream’d aloud and leapt forth
and fetching his dead~doing pen in his wrath
he workt off his piece with such art of the pen
that he aim’d at the ladies but wounded the men;
and labour’d so hard
the doors were all barr’d
and none was admitted but trusty blanchard
’twas writ in such haste, you’re desir’d to dispense
with the want of true grammar, good english and sense
