Air—“Though dark are our sorrows, to-day we’ll forget them.”

Though num’rous our debts are, yet soon we forget them,

When free from a bailiff’s or turnkey’s rude powers;

For never were hearts, if the nabmen would let them,

More formed to be jovial and light than ours.

But though without cash

We oft cut a dash,

And credit besprinkles our path with flowers,

Yet the day will come

When we’re found at home!
