Baker, however, was not dash’d with ease—
But proved he practised after their own system,
And with small ceremony soon dismiss’d ’em,
Putting these words into their ears like fleas;
“If I do have a blow, well, where’s the oddity?
I merely do as other tradesmen do,
You, Sir,—and you—and you!
I’m only puffing off my own commodity!”
URGING THE SAIL OF YOUR OWN WORK.
