in woollen ? x 'Twould a saint provoke, ' Were the last words that poor Narcissa spoke.
1 This refers to the Act of Parliament, then recent, for burying 120 ALEXANDER POPE ' No, let a charming chintz and Brussels lace Wrap my cold limbs and shade my lifeless face ; One would not sure be frightful when one 's dead : And, Betty, give this cheek a little red. ' Well, what 's the matter now ? What 's amiss with Narcissa, that a satirist must be called in to hold an inquest upon the corpse, and take... Betty's evidence against her mistress ? Upon hearing any such question, Pope would have started up in the character (very unusual with Mm) of religious censor, and demanded whether one approved of a woman's fixing her last dying thought upon the attractions of a person so soon to dwell with darkness and worms ? Was that right — to provide for coquetting in her coffin ? Why no, not strictly right, its impropriety cannot be denied ; but what strikes one even more is, the suspicion that it may be a lie.
