All long to say, from Fleet to Chepe,
“O, good-bye to the Bar and its moaning!”
Punch, September 26, 1874.
The Three Skaters.
Three ladies went skating at Prince’s one day,
And happy indeed were one and all;
For their hearts were light, and their dresses were gay,
But ’ere night they each had a terrible fall;
