All this to Andrew and his Spouse, I trow,
Was novelty—and yet it had no charms,
For both, before the night, were heard to vow
They wished they had not left the Mason's Arms.
Close to the rails they stood—and you might see
Their notions of delight began to waver;
When Andrew's wife fell over in the sea,
And might have drown'd; but Andrew shouted "Save her!"
Perhaps you think he jumped into the water;
