Of our great men, and Andreossi,
He show’d black art of worse description,
Than e’er did conjuring Egyptian.
He cut a bullock’s head I ween,
Sheer off, as if by guillotine;
Then (Satan aiding the adventure)
He made it bellow like a Stentor![58]
And this most comical magician
Will soon, in public exhibition,
Perform a feat he’s often boasted,
