CORYDON

However, you shall home with me to-night,

Forget your cares, and revel in delight,

I have in store a pint or two of wine,

Some cracknels, and the remnant of a chine.

And now on either side, and all around,

The weighty shop-boards fall, and bars resound;

Each ready sempstress slips her pattens on,

And ties her hood, preparing to be gone.
