Shall turn the Ship quite bottom up,
And drink the Three Cups dry."
The Bear, Angel, Ship, and Three. Cups, were public-houses in the neighbourhood. He succeeded, and got their custom.

"His liquor's good, his pot is just,
The landlord's poor, and cannot trust,
For he has trusted to his sorrow,—
So pay to day, he'll trust to-morrow."
