Its sides display’d a dazzling hue,

Its harness tight, its lining new:

No scheme-enamoured youth, I ween,

Survey’d the gaily deck’d machine,

But fondly long’d to seize the reins,

And whirl o’er Campsfield’s tempting plains.

Mean time it chanc’d, that hard at hand

A one-horse chair had took its stand;

When thus our vehicle begun

To sneer the luckless chair and one.
