Back that confounded, desperate Solace colt,
Or of that mulish Muley make a pet?
No doubt, large sums I thought of soon amassin';
But what a double ass I was to bet
On that Ass-ass-in!
The bounds of prudence how hard to regain!
When once a man o'ersteps 'em!
But I have done: Richard's himself again!
Yes, be assured,
I'm now completely cured;
