I should not mind one little babe, no more.

But, poínt du TWO, I don't want half a score;

Yet still, in quick succession, lo! they rise,

A pretty string of pains and penal-ties.

Family Ties.

From schoolmasters abroad the yearly bills

Run high among life's unsurmounted hills,

And pretty hillocks are those things call'd extras,

At doubling which they're all so ambidextrous;
