To-day to run our dinners fine,

To feed on air and then to dine

With Civic Corporations—

XX.

To save th' Old Bailey daily shilling,

And then to take a half-year's filling

In P.N.'s pious Row—

When ask'd to Hock and haunch o' ven'son,

Thro' something we have worn our pens on

For Longman and his Co.
