EPILOGUE.

“Silence in Court! what’s this unseemly rumpus?

Attention to the parting words of Bumpus.

Tired of disguise, of borrowed rank and station,

Thus in a trice I work my transformation.

His wig and nose removed, the beak appears

A simple officer of Volunteers,

Who to himself restored, and sick of mumming,

Begs leave to thank you each and all for coming,

Spite of cross roads, dark lanes, tenacious clay,
