Once you have searched every tiny word meaning you laugh that kind of laugh that goes through your nose

I know the whole point is to make fun of what an unimportant drama it all was but I got distracted by the symbolism of "man thinks he has a right to a woman's body and when she rightfully calls him out on it, he and his friend make fun of her for having a meltdown over a little good fun."
So once the thought sat in my head, it kind of robbed me of the hilarity of the situation. I know it's just the lock of hair but still...

WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY SOPHIE GEE A hideous crime is committed at a fashionable London society gathering. The victim is the beautiful, innocent Belinda, her attacker is the dastardly Baron, and his weapon of choice is a pair of scissors... Pope's mock-epic is the sharp and witty tale of the most famous bad hair day in the history of literature.
