DescriptionMary toft the doctors in labour.jpg |
English: Doctors in Labour, or a new whim-wham from Guildford. Poor Mary Toft in Ignorance was bred, And ne'er betray'd a deep designing head, Ne'er did seem cut out for plots; Yet never did Wife, Like her impose so grossly on Man Midwife, Who scorning Reason common sense and Nature, Plac'd all their faith in such a stupid Creature.
When I [Mary Toft] five weeks was gone with Child, And hard at work was weeding in the field, Up starts a rabbit—to my grief I viewed it, And vainly though with eagerness pursued it, The effect was strange—blest is the womb that's barren For that can near be made a coney [rabbit] warren.
The rabbit all day long ran in my head, At night I dreamt I had him in my bed; Me thought he there a burrow tried to make His head I patted and stroked his back. My Husband waked me and cried [Mary] for shameLet go—what was meant I need not name. Français : Les Docteurs au travail, ou une nouvelle extravagance de Guildford, gravure grand format. |
