Five hours, (and who can do it less in?) By haughty Celia spent in dressing; The goddess from her chamber issues, Arrayed in lace, brocades and tissues. Strephon, who found the room was void, And Betty otherwise employed, Stole in, and took a strict survey, Of all the litter as it lay; . . . The basin takes whatever comes, The scrapings of her teeth and gums, A nasty compound of all hues, For here she spits, and here she spews. But oh! it turned poor Strephon's bowels, When he beheld and smelled the towels, Begummed, bemattered, and beslimed, With dirt, and sweat, and earwax grimed. No object Strephon's eye escapes, Here petticoats in frowzy heaps; Nor be the handkerchiefs forgot, All varnished o'er with snuff and snot. Describe Swift's point of view of women in the passage. Then explain how he uses sarcasm, satire, or irony to convey that point of view. Support your ideas with specific details from the passage.
