Daily Dose


From Poetical Works, by Jonathan Swift

DUBLIN VS LONDON

"You for the news are ne'er to seek,
While we perhaps may wait a week;
You happy folks are sure to meet
A hundred whores in every street,
While we may trace all Dublin o'er
Before we find out half a score."

From Copy of the Birthday Verses On Mrs. Ford
