The wide-eyed woman grins and wears a bonnet, gown, and coat. The valentine criticizes young women who show affection for
too many men too frequently. The valentine possibly connects her enthusiasm with promiscuity.

Text: I never like to see a pretty miss / Love everything she meets with breeches on; / And thinks herself possessed of every
bliss, / To sport with each new beau she pitches on.
