Of gaming Puppys nothing new,

Why should not Monkeys gamble too;

And, throwing off all moral fetters.

In vicious courses APE their betters?

This hopeful sprig, despising rule,

Creeps not like Shakspeare's boy to school

With learning stores his brain to hack,

The satchel dangling at his back;

More pleasant pastime having found,

See slate and satchel on the ground;
