Cutting the traces

Will leave us dead-lock'd, here of all bad places!

Oh, do keep quiet, K-mb-rl-y! You're twitching

My cape again! Mind, Asq-th! You'll be pitching

Over that barrier, if you are not steady.

Fancy us getting in this fix—already!

Cabbin' it in a fog is awkward work,

Specially for the driver, who can't shirk,

When once his "fare" is taken.

I feel shaken.
