Grub´binol, a shepherd who sings with Bumkinet a dirge on the death of Blouzelinda.
Thus wailed the louts in melancholy strain,
Till bonny Susan sped across the plain;
They seized the lass, in apron clean arrayed,
And to the ale-house forced the willing maid;
In ale and kisses they forgot their cares,
And Susan, Blouzelinda’s loss repairs.
Gay, Pastoral, v. (1714).
(An imitation of Virgil’s Ecl., v. “Daphnis.”)
