Ellen
appears in the Dress of a Gipsey Girl, sitting in a Wood. Now sadly
alter'd Ellen's seen; What can this transformation mean? Wishing
her poor old nurse to fret, One day she left her in a pet, And rambled
far, till near a wood At length she hesitating stood; Her cloak
it caught some gipsey's eyes, Who soon rush'd forth and seiz'd their
prize: Poor Ellen scream'd with terror wild, No friend was near
to save the child; To strip her soon they did begin, Then gave the
rags you see her in.
