An Irish terrier." Then his pal replied,

"I know a place where you may pinch with ease

One of these here carnation Pekinese.

"You see them nasty spikes on that there wall?

Climb it, and you shall find a little yard;

An unlatched casement leads you to a hall,

Thence to the crib where, odorous with nard,

Slumbers the petted plaything; 'twere not hard

Out of his cushioned ease (and gorged belike

With sweetmeats) to appropriate the tyke."
