When a mere boy, by two good men assail’d,
Beneath his prowess Brown and Watson quail’d;
And after combat resolute and tough,
Lenney and Cooper, sorrowing, cried, “Enough!”
Thrice Peter Warren tried to do the trick,
But found his master in triumphant Dick;
In a turn-up, from momentary heat,
Ned Savage was made savage by defeat;
And bouncing Barney Aaron, Hebrew stout,
Look’d all abroad when Richard sarv’d him out;
