Your laughter i'll try to provoke,

With the words I've got in my travels;

And first is a pig in a poke,

Next a law-case without any cavils;

Tol lol, &c.

A straw poker, a tiffany boat,

Paper boots to walk dry thro' the ditches;

A new lignumvitæ great coat,

Flint waistcoat and pair of glass breeches.

Tol lol, &c.

A dimity warming pan new,

Steel night cap, and pair of lawn bellows:

A yard-wide foot-rule, and then two

Odd shoes that belong to odd fellows.

Tol lol, &c.

China wheelbarrow, earthen-ware gig,

A book bound in wood with no leaves to‘t,

Besides a new velveret wig

Lin'd with tripe, and a long pair o‘ sleeves to't.

Tol lol, &c.

A coal-scuttle trim'd with Scottish gauze,

Tickled crimpets and barricoed muffins;
