The musical band, on a terrace appearing,

Perform’d many tunes that enchanted the hearing;

The Ape, on the haut-boy much science display’d—

The Monkey the fiddle delightfully play’d—

The Orang Outang touch’d the harp with great skill, }

The Ass beat the drum, with effect and good will, }

And the Squirrel kept ringing his merry bells still. }
