DEFINITION OF A DENTIST.

A dentist fashions teeth of bone

For those whom fate has left without,

And finds provision for his own

By pulling other people’s out.

Dr. Samuel Goodenough, Bishop of Carlisle, preached on one occasion before the House of Commons. The event gave rise to the following:—

’Tis well-enough that Goodenough

Before the House should preach;

For sure-enough full bad-enough

Are those he has to teach.
