And O the noise of the blackguard boys,
As they hnrrood and hollowed him.
The noble Chair stud at the stair,
And bade the dthrums to thump; and he
Did thus evince, to that Black Prince,
The Welcome of his Company.

And bright tlie oys you saw there, was:
And fixed cadi oye, ye there could spoi,
On Gineral Jung liahawther, was !
This Gineral great then tuck his sate,
With all the other gin era la,

All hleczecl with precious minerals);
And as he there, with princely air,
Reclomin1 on his cushion was,
All round about his royal chair

Such fashion and nobilitee!

Min Esther and his lady there,
And I reckonizcd, with much surprise;,
Our messmate, Bob O'Grady, there;
There was Eat on ess Pii unow, that looked like June*
And Baroness Rehausen there,
And Countess Ruu'lier, that looked peculiar
Weil, in her robes of gauze in there.
