On means not yours–be brave in silks and laces,

You’re troublesome!” Why this, forgive me,
Is what, when done with a less dainty grace,
Plain folks call “Theft.” ~ Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton - “Sophie,” he said, and when she gave him a stern look, he took a hasty swig of the posset. “Miss Collins.
