IMPROMPTU UPON BEING OBLIGED TO LEAVE A PARTY .. WANT OF BREECHES by THOMAS MOORE

First Line: BETWEEN ADAM AND ME THE GREAT DIFFERENCE IS
Last Line: WHILE, FOR WANT OF MY BREECHES, I'M BANISH'D FROM MINE.
Subject(s): CLOTHING & DRESS;
BETWEEN Adam and me the great difference is,
Though a Paradise each has been forced to resign,
That he never wore breeches till turn'd out of his,
While, for want of my breeches, I'm banish'd from mine.
