Bates every city upon the say;

An Lady Morgan makin tay;
For tis the capital of the finest nation,
Wid charmin pisintry on a fruitful sod,
Fightin like divils for conciliation
An hatin each other for the love of God.”

Or lace for your cape,
My dainty duck, my dear-a?

And toys for your head,
Of the newst and finest, finest wear-a?
Come to the pedlar;
Moneys a meddler,
That doth utter all mens ware-a.”
