"I have it, a good thought, I don't care a pin ;" So under the toilette her caxon she threw, And then boldly cried, " Now, Sir, you may come in." He started, drew back, gave a kind of a hoot! Did fond lover e'er such an accident twig? She bridled and curtsied, as bald as a coot, In her flutter forgetting her head had no wig. With gravity he was no longer endued ; His risible muscles unmasterable grew; And while a loud volley of laughter ensued, His jaws he so stretch'd that out every tooth flew! He'd a grunter, a cow, aye, and whiskey at home; And the love of all fair ones might well make him vain, But dearest was Judy to Teddy M'Fane! I steal to his cabin, blind Darby to see, He cries," Arrah, Judy, our Ted's far from thee! He would go to England his fortune to make With a hod, or in hay-field-och, 'twas all for thy sake!". I snatch up the pipes, the dear pipes of my Ted, And kiss them and weep, but the music is fled! Ne'er a lad in Kilkenny could finger a strain, Or foot at a wake, like young Teddy M'Fane. At morn or at eve, when I milk their one cow, I sing, "Cruel Teddy, come to me, boy, do, From your own red-hair'd Judy, och! how could you part? Some Countess will be after stealing your heart." My old mother scolds in her corner all day, Calls my cheeks white as linen-och! sure, well she may, They're bleach'd by my tears, like two spouts in the rain Arrah, blow ye winds, bring me back Teddy M'Fane! FRIENDSHIP. FRIENDSHIP's indeed a social charm, And sets the mind at rest. Then why should we neglect to form, Before the time of need, A haven to escape that storm From which we might be freed? And why should we our lives mispend, Sittingbourn, 2d Sept. 1812. Bell-ringing, humorous description Bunbury, Sir Thomas Charles, Childers, Col. sale of his stud a Doncaster, 248.
