FTP, name this author who wrote about Captain Macheath in The Beggar's Opera.
He wrote that the title character's eyes, lips, and breasts are "so provoking" that they set his "heart more cock-a-hoop / Than could whole seas of craw-fish soup" in his "To a Young Lady with Some Lampreys."  He reminded a milkmaid named Priscilla how she would tremble, when her "nipple's pressed," to see "white drops bathe" her "swelling breast" in an "eclogue" that parodies Virgil's Pollio, "The Birth of the Squire."  His most famous work includes an "air" in which one character speaks of being warm with his love "on Greenland's coast," while she vows that she would love him even if she were "sold on Indian soil."  His longer poems include The Shepherd's Week and a work about the "art of walking the streets of London," Trivia, but he is best known for a work whose sequel was 1729's Polly.
