You seem to be of your distresses proud,

And take of me a most mistaken view;

But stop a minute—have some kangaroo?

BUGGINS.

Shepherd, I thank you; take a pinch of snuff.

I'm somewhat peckish, though it's rather tough.

A little mustard—what you had to say—

I'm all attention—shepherd, fire away!

MUGGINS.

No swain more sad than I in all the run
