Then was not I a sad confounded Dog! }
_R. H._
I'll never get drunk again,
For my Head's full of Pain,
And it grieves me to think,
That by Dint of good Drink,
I should lie with my _Phillis_ in vain.
_R. H._ 1712.
_Salisbury, the King's Arms, on the Wall._
Here was a 'Pothecary's Wife,
Who never lov'd her Spouse in all her Life;
And for want of his Handle,
Made use of a Candle:

To bring Things together.

And that is enough to save her Credit.
_S. B._ 1712.
_Under this is wrote._

And since that, by _Jove_,
And the God of Love,
We have lost the Use of Handles.

And if you won't help me,
Then _Bacchus_ protect me.
_R. M._ 1709.

And I tumbled her down;
And I tickled her Fancy
For half a Crown.

_At the Same Place._
_CHLOE's Character._

Her Character light as the Sun;
Her Dealings are hard as a Stone;
But her Promise as sure as a Gun.

When all at length it came to pass, }
That the Hog and the Monkey,
Grew so drunkey,
That both were ready to kiss the A - - se
