For two sultanas such as Mrs. Trotter.

On! sweeping all

Before them like the hay in time of mowing,

Upsetting chairs and tables in the way;

The ornaments, by Mrs. T.'s bouquet

(Of peonies and dahlias all a-blowing)

Brush'd from the mantelpieces, fall;

The fiddlers into corners crouch;

The guests away in dudgeon slouch,

As from the hunter's spear shrink otters,
