8 When Christ comes about again, Oh then I will have money. I'll hoard it up, and box and all, I'll give it to my honey; I would it were ten thousand pounds, I give it all to Sally;- She is the darling of my heart, And the lives in our alley.

My master and the neighbours all Make game of me and Sally, An I (but for her) I'd better be A slave, and row a galley; But when my seven long gears are out, Oh, then I'll marry Sally! Oh! then we'll w, and then we'll bed, But not in our alley.

I AM A YOUNG MAN THAT'S MOST HIGHLY RESPECTABLE.

I AM a young man that's most highly respectable; My nature genteel, and my feelings susceptible; I want a father, a mother, an aunt,- In short, I can't tell what relations I want. I want an nice plenty of tippers; I want a tailor to find me in frippere; I want parks and mansions, want villas and grounds, Want racers and hunters, want foxes and hounds.

I am a young man, &c.

I want a tandem to splash to the races now; I want a roadster that's good in his paces now; I want smart footmen, a tiger-but sounds; I scarcely can keep all my wants within bounds. I want it wife with a villa to being her to; I want a valet that's own to a thing or two; I want to be shown to each swell fed haunt,- In short, I can't tell you one half that I want.

I am a young man, &c.
