6. Stratford Jubilee, 1769.
"Mother! mother! take in the clothes: here be the players a-coming!"
THE HARVEST SUPPER.
The latest load from the field is come,
"Hip! Hip! Hip! for the Harvest Home!"
The guests they throng to the feast in swarms,
More men than manners, more chairs than forms;
And 'twould puzzle a lawyer here to point,
And prove that the times are out of joint.
I love fat fowls in a bill of fare,
