An _Ass_ and _Two Travellers_.
A Couple of _Travellers_ that took up an _Ass_ in a Forrest, fell
downright to Loggerheads, which of the Two should be his Master: So the
_Ass_ was to stand by, to see those Two Boobies try their Title to him by
a Rubber at Cuffs. The _Ass_ very fairly look’d on, till they had Box’d
themselves aweary, and then left them both in the Lurch.
The MORAL.
_’Tis a common thing, both in Love, Law and Arms, for Plaintiff and
Defendant to lye Battering one another for a Prize that gives them both
the slip._
