“A rosin candle shows bad night...”
(continued from previous page)Jack Downy's thinks he's very wise
Fools and children like to fight
Murry thinks he has got a prize
But hereafters not come yet
Billy Gavan loves a glass
I might say three or four
'Tis wrong to call a man an ass
No matter how he'd roar.
Peggy Breakey loves a ball
Dancing cheers her when she's sad.
The Corporal warns the people all
And that's the thing that sets mad.
He that's blind need buy no specks;
He that's lame is apt to limp;
Merry man says what he likes,
We know that Tim's a dreadful imp.(* Ned Dandy was very fond of licking his lips.).
