At five he walks "the Burlington," in which esteemed Arcade he
Meets various of his chosen chums—the silly and the shady;
Then to the Berkeley or Savoy at eight o'clock or later,
Much over-dressed, to over-dine, and over-tip the waiter.
The theatre next, and last his club (the which he takes delight in),
To prove his pluck by "lookin' on at other Johnnies fightin'."
His conversation's all made up of stable and of scandal,
And tales of "chaps he knows"—whose names have mostly got a "handle."
He "don't go in" for ladies much, their style of charm is not his,
Which follows on the model of the "Lotties" and the "Totties."
