The art by portions during my whole life—

How many kinds of greens, and sorts of sprats—

The manifold varieties of lentils:—

To sum up all—when I've officiated

During a funeral feast, as soon as ever

The company return'd from the procession,

All in their mourning robes, by merely lifting

My saucepan's lid I've made the weepers laugh,

Such titillations ran throughout their bodies,

As if it was a merry marriage-banquet.
