Side 149 - His stomach too begins to fail: 'Last year we thought him strong and hale; 'But now, he's quite another thing; 'I wish he may hold out till Spring.' Then hug themselves, and reason thus; 'It is not yet so bad with us.
Side 160 - With all the turns of Whigs and Tories : Was cheerful to his dying day ; And friends would let him have his way. " He gave the little wealth he had To build a house for fools and mad ; And show'd by one satiric touch, No nation wanted it so much.
Side 14 - Thomas, did'st thou never pop Thy head into a tin-man's shop? There, Thomas, did'st thou never see (Tis but by way of Simile !) A squirrel spend his little rage, In jumping round a rolling cage? The cage, as either side...
