And won't say "Yes," and keeps you on and off-ing

Then sees your heart wreck'd, with an inward scoffing.”

Madam Rose is a scholar,--
O, they fish with all nets
In the School of Coquettes!
When her brooch she forgets
'Tis to show her new collar;
In the School of Coquettes
Madam Rose is a scholar!”

“Coquetry whets the appetite; flirtation depraves it. Coquetry is
the thorn that guards the rose--easily trimmed off when once

them hard to handle, and when caught, only to be cherished in
slimy waters.
