Omnes. Ay, a song, a song!

Tony. Then I'll sing you, gentlemen, a song I made upon this alehouse, the Three Pigeons.

SONG.

Let school-masters puzzle their brain,

With grammar, and nonsense, and learning;

Good liquor, I stoutly maintain,

Give genus a better discerning.

Let them brag of their heathenish gods,

Their Lethes, their Styxes, and Stygians;

Their quis, and their quæs, and their quods,
