Now that's a delightful poem! And the femslash one is intriguing. How does it end, is the wife punished by fate or does she get a happy ending with her servant? And do we ever find out what the servant woman thinks of all this?
Bosvil, him? I know Boswell the biographer had a cousin Miss Bosville, so it's an actual Scottish name. But I don't think there were any Jacobite Boswells, either false or real. :) (I mean, Boswell's Dad Alexander was no fan of Team Hannover, either, but he loathed the Stuarts.)
