Fat horned beasts now line our streets,

Which Aldermen were wont to pace on;

And oxen low, and lambkins bleat,

And all for Stockton’s commendation[73].

Our races too deserve a tune,

The northern sportsmen all prefer ’em,

For Dainty Davy here did run

Much better then at York or Durham.

O ’twould take up a swingeing volume,

To sing at large our reputation;
