Who sings of Inns much danger has to dread,
And needs assistance from the fountain-head.
High in the street, o’erlooking all the place,
The rampant Lion shows his kingly face;
His ample jaws extend from side to side,
His eyes are glaring, and his nostrils wide;
In silver shag the sovereign form is dress’d,
A mane horrific sweeps his ample chest;
Elate with pride, he seems t’assert his reign,
And stands the glory of his wide domain.
