For such fat Besom fitting[[25]]

As in the dance I whirled about,

They 'gan to stamp and rumble;

The Senius stretched his leg so out,[[26]]

That I must o'er it tumble.

I'll off by Zurich unto Berne,

And there I think to stay, so;

And if my sweetheart false should turn,

She may write to me, and say so.

I must be stupid as an ass,
