Impromptu, upon Being Obliged to Leave a Pleasant Party, from the Want of a Pair of Breeches to Dress for Dinner in
From Satirical and Humorous Poems
History & Politics
Between Adam and me the great difference is,
Tho' a paradise each has been forced to resign,
That he never wore breeches, till turned out of his,
While for want of my breeches, I'm banisht from mine.
