Till, gathering like the ball of snow,

By the time it got to Stratford-le-Bow,

Through Exaggeration's touches,

The Heiress and hope of the Kilmanseggs

Was propp'd on two fine Golden Legs,

And a pair of Golden Crutches!

CXXVIII.

Never had Leg so great a run!

'Twas the "go" and the "Kick" thrown into one!

The mode—the new thing under the sun,
