Mounseer, who don’t value his life,

In the Thames would have just dipped his vings,

If it vasn’t for vetting his vife,

For vimen are timbersome things:

So at Hampstead he landed her dry;

And after this dangerous sarvice,

He took a French leave of the sky,

And vent back to Vauxhall in a Jarvis.

1828.
