    1720, John Gay, “Tuesday; or, the Ditty” in Poems on Several Occasions, London: H. Lintot, R. Tonson & S. Draper, 1745, Volume I, p. 85, Will she thy linen wash or hosen darn, And knit thee gloves made of her own-spun yarn? Will she with huswife’s hand provide thy meat, And ev’ry Sunday morn thy neckcloth plait? Which o’er thy kersey doublet spreading wide, In service time drew Cic’ly’s eyes aside.
