This is the dress made on the machine that I’ll have. This is the girl that run the machine, that made nice dresses for the Queen, on the machine that I’ll have. This is the couple-how happy they seem, because they have got a Domestic machine! The people shout ‘tis well, ’tis wise! twill make a dress of any size-That’s the machine that I’ll have.
