“Pull out,” said a friend, “all the ladies’ delight, sir,”

He did, and exhibited two inches more.

Girls, take my advice; let this odd fish before you

Be first skinn’d alive, and then dress’d to your taste,

As a standing dish dainty, dear souls, I implore you,

Take in all you can, but let none run to waste;

Old Jonah, who lay in the whale’s blubber’d belly,

Came out weak and feeble, went in strong and stout,

So into your bellies, this fish, need I tell ye,

As stoutly goes in, as he feebly slips out.
