Off they go, all bleeding and raw,—

But the public seems to get the lock-jaw,

So little is said on the matter!

CXX.

Legs, the tightest that ever were seen,

The tightest, the lightest, that danced on the green,

Cutting capers to sweet Kitty Clover;

Shatter'd, scatter'd, cut, and bowl'd down,

Off they go, worse off for renown,

A line in the Times, or a talk about town,
