The cursed, rugged Road, made Dobbin stumble;

Some sad mishap his senses now forebodes,

When Teague exclaims, ‘These are the [Devil’s] own Roads!’

Now from a Cliff they view’d a Gulph below,

Where Tagus sternly midst the Rocks did flow,

A narrow path they follow’d, jam’d with stones,

John, Dobbin led, and trembled for his bones:

Scrambling, & straggling, step from Ridge to Ridge;

At length, the danger passed, they reach’d the Bridge.

Now on their Route we find them each day gaining,
