1829.
THE BUDGET
“Come buy my fine Apples,”
The old Woman cries,
“You cannot have better
For eating or pies.”
The Huxter and Donkey
Are both on their legs:
They’re going to market
For butter and eggs.
The Barber, of all men,
Is most full of news,
And ever detested
By long-bearded Jews.
“Well, Richard, you’re mounted
Again, I declare!”
“Yes, riding is better
Than walking, by far!”
