Mr. Peeps or Peps or Pips
 * (However he should be yclept),

Clerk of the King's Bureau of Ships,
 * A very spicy journal kept.

He knew a lemon from a peach,
 * And, among other things, he knew

When kisses are a shilling each
 * We should adventure on a few!

He was a connoisseur of lips,
 * And though I cannot quite accept

Some of his rather shady tips
 * (I grant he often overstepped

The bounds of taste)—still he can teach
 * Misogynists a thing or two—

When kisses are a shilling each
 * We should adventure on a few!
