Reading Mistress Peachum's Pleasure



I'm reading Mistress Peachum's Pleasure -

I sit with thief takers, rakes and wits - 


Polly sees her comely youth approach the tree - 

Blueskin lunges for Jonathan Wilde -


Little Mr Pope hears Lavinia sing -

His Grace whispers loudly - it will do - it must do!
