Off tramping, as fast as could trot toe,

Away from the scene o£ discomfiture—

Had he stood there stock-still in a dumb fit—sure

Am I he had paid in his person

Till his mother might fail to know her son,

Though she gazed on him never so wistful,

In the figure so tattered and tristful.

Each mouth full of curses, each fist full

Of cuffings—behold, Pacchiarotto,

The pass which thy project has got to,
