And no wonder, repeats the Chronicle, it was quite natural
For The Lady was as accomplished and polite as civil
But altho' so endowed, she had a fault
– For who is without fault –

Must have something very enchanting and alluring about itself
Her admirers did not dismiss fall off
And thronged around her many, and noble
