Adieu! she cries; and waved her lily hand.

John Gay

That raven on yon left-hand oak
(Curse on his ill-betiding croak!)
Bodes me no good.

John Gay

I don't enquire after your Affairs— —so whatever happens, I wash my hands on't—— It hath always been my Maxim, that one Friend should assist another— —But if you please——I'll take one of the Scarfs home with me. 'Tis always good to have something in Hand.
