22 What all the world says must be true, To me it seems quite funn-y, When I left home I'm sure I'd two, Tho now it seems but one eye: As those who will not see, are none So blind--- I've heard folks cry out, Now tho' I see, ---folk every one, Still bawl that I've an eye out.'

T' account for this affair, egad! It cost my brain much trouble ; And I thought I must be drunk or mad, If drunk I did see double : So the next that bawl'd I black'd his face, And made his eye soon fly out; So I cried with a better grace, ' There you go with your eye out.'

But now of Lunnon town I'm sick, So I'll from Cockney walk sheer, And take this speech that's quite the kick, Wi' me now back to Yorkshire. To wed me, Dolly waits, d'ye mind, So to her I will cry out--- For she loves me, and love is blind... ' Oh!--there you go with your eye out.'
