III.

In her first passion Woman loves her lover,

In all the others all she loves is Love,

Which grows a habit she can ne'er get over,

And fits her loosely—like an easy glove,[CH]As you may find, whene'er you like to prove her:

One man alone at first her heart can move;

She then prefers him in the plural number,

Not finding that the additions much encumber.
