And work with silly Bones Sir:
To make my Leather soft and moist,
I use a pair of Stones Sir:
My Lasts for and my lasting Sticks,
Are fit for every size Sir;
I know the length of Lasses Feet,
By handling of their Thighs Sir.
The Tanner's Trade I practice,
Sometimes amongst the rest Sir;
Yet I could never get a Hair,
