Joan Cudgels Ned

Title:     Joan Cudgels Ned
Author: Jonathan Swift [More Titles by Swift]

Joan cudgels Ned, yet Ned's a bully;
Will cudgels Bess, yet Will's a cully.
Die Ned and Bess; give Will to Joan,
She dares not say her life's her own.
Die Joan and Will; give Bess to Ned,
And every day she combs his head.

[The end]
Jonathan Swift's poem: Joan Cudgels Ned
