Dear George, don't engage with that dragon;

She'll lead you to sorrow and shame,

And leave you the devil a rag on

Your rum ti, &c.

In vain he entreats and implores

The weak and incurable ninny,

So kicks him at last out of doors,

And Georgy soon spends his last guinea.

His uncle, whose generous purse

Had often relieved him, as I know,
