Let me thy Properties explain, br A rotten Cabin, dropping Rain; br Chimnies with Scorn rejecting Smoak; br Stools, Tables, Chairs, and Bed-steds broke: br Here Elements have lost their Vses, br Air ripens not, nor Earth produces: br In vain we make poor Sheelah toil, br Fire will not roast, nor Water boil. br Thro' all the Vallies, Hills, and Plains, br The Goddess Want in Triumph reigns; br And her chief Officers of State, br Sloth, Dirt, and Theft around her wait.
