Of "Rough Notes of a Slide on the Great Frozen Ocean,"

Or "A Midsummer's Ramble from Stamford to Stambol;"

Or "The Steppes of the Cossacks, by one who has walked in 'em;"

And I'm sure that whate'er Mr. Punch's plans were,

If these tourists could prosper, he wouldn't be baulked in 'em.

Like the witches, perchance, he might choose to advance,

And so order his coachman to bring out his brougham;

Or ask Phœbus to lead forth that spirited steed,

Which is furnished, in turn, by each Muse, with a groom;

But, however, we'll fancy him safely in Quansi,
