 OR, 
 
 THE ENTRAPPED HEIRESS OF 
 W M! 
 
 GODS ! from B — xt — n what strange news we hear,— 
 They say, a rheumatic old soul, 
 
 Some weeks since, at their Church, without shame, 
 From the altar made off with the COAL ! 
 
 That from W -m, in Essex, they find. 
 
 This offender so bold came to town ; 
 
 Where — long before now ! — he has been 
 
 As a ‘‘culler of shnples*' well knowm ! 
 
 That e’en ere the rash act was committed, 
 
 Quite incensed seem’d each hater of vice ; 
 
 For ’twas plain that the Priest — just before — 
 
 Had made such a great sacrifice! 
 
 Yet, rather than make such another. 
 
 They trust long at home he may tarry ; 
 
 For it seems — though so devilish strange — 
 
 He sacrificed all to “ Old Harry!** 
 
 Should you fear that I slander this Priest, 
 
 Let reflection abate your misgiving ; 
 
 They must all be sad “dogs” that so make 
 
 E’en the dead help support their good Living / 
 
 But as some — like our sly son of Galen — 
 
 May few patience possess, and me blame. 
 
 Know, the COAL that was taken — though strange— 
 Had without any match “raised a fiameV* 
 
2 
 
 Mind^ I don’t mean the flame raised by Swing 
 By his much less mischief is done, — 
 
 But a flame” in a doctor's breast raging, 
 
 Which seem’d a most phial^ent one ! 
 
 Yes, a lass, in this doctor, alas f 
 
 Had destroyed all the wonted tranquillity ; 
 
 Than before, he grew rougher in manners. 
 
 Though he lost not his fame for dose-ilUityl 
 
 And ^tis doubtful if much he’d have fretted 
 
 Had he found there were me and all you ill : 
 
 Strange ! to see one so anxious for COAL, 
 
 Yet not at all pleased to see few ill! 
 
 To hint why this COAL had such power 
 Does not us dull sinners become ; 
 
 But Pat thinks to be charm’d there’s a ^^rason'' 
 
 When ’tis current that there is ^^?LplumP' 
 
 Sure, her favour’d with cash or estate 
 Is the lass of all others to take ; 
 
 When old r — k — s once find out such a fair, 
 
 How soon we espy them a-wdke ! 
 
 Though se-rfwc-tion’s a most foul ofteiice, 
 
 There’s a thought makes o — r case seem less black: 
 
 Those who pond-ex it o’er should reflect 
 The offender is only a q k ! 
 
 Besides, by some Benedicts young 
 
 He’d been told there was nothing in life — 
 
 Except ’twas a brute of a husband — 
 
 That ever yet beat a good wife ! 
 
 When he blushingly knelt as your slave. 
 
 And sigh’d out each heartfelt expression. 
 
 Oh ! G a, you then must have thought 
 
 Those who practice*' regard the profession r

 But go ask sage Experience this. 
 
 And her sides youHl with laughter convulse : 
 
 Would that he who’s a pulse so oft felt 
 
 Had been doom’d then to feel a RE~pulse ! 
 
 Marvel not that a Knight of the Lancet 
 
 Should 80 writhe ’neath the rosy god’s shafts, 
 
 When it seems such a poor sorry plan 
 
 To raise ^‘the wind'* merely by draughts ! 
 
 E’en where there no lack is of brass/* 
 
 The prospect it ever must please, 
 
 To have — with our silvery locks” — 
 
 A good store of gold ’neath our keys ! 
 
 And this prospect delightful to view. 
 
 You have only to win a rich lass ; — 
 
 Oh ! all — like our Catholics — now 
 
 Seem in secret inclined to a-mass / 
 
 But our leech** e’er he so salivates us, 
 
 His love of quicksilver seems vast ; 
 
 So few are surprised now they see him 
 
 E’en attempt to make gold arrive fa,st / 
 
 Compared with bright age, sure, us boys 
 
 Of the charms of the sex are poor scanners ; 
 
 Had we nous, we should ne’er ‘‘tell our love” 
 But to her who possesses good manors I 
 
 Man's estate” may suffice for dull youth,— 
 For him who’s to cunning no debtor,— 
 
 But the wisdom of age, it appears, 
 
 Deems that of an heiress far better I 
 
 On the few friends G a has left 
 
 How severe is the sentence now heard ; 
 
 For the silly belle still had been free 
 
 If of counsel she’d gain’d but a word /

 Since she’s been so entrapp’d, some with doubt 
 Of the victim’s right intellect speak ; 
 
 They forget — if with doctor^ s 9tuff" plied — 
 E’en Sathanus himself would seem weak ! 
 
 But if aimed our shafts be at her^ 
 
 On the wrong horse the saddle we put ; 
 
 And think not a man’s weaker vesseV 
 Shall e’er of our jokes be the butt! 
 
 Others think, the young lass (d la David) 
 
 Take for heat did her musty old soul ; 
 
 But Pat — who to cash gives odd names — 
 
 Says ’twas only to get at ^^the COLE!** 
 
 And now-a-days vice grows so rife — 
 
 To such a strange pass things are brought, 
 
 We see — where no principle's found — 
 
 For mere interest men will do aught ! 
 
 Oh ! if in this world there’s a sight 
 At which offence honesty takes, 
 
 It is to see young beauty live 
 
 But to ^^fork out” the cash for old r—k—s / 
 
 And we fear, fair G a, you*\\ find. 
 
 As of cash oft such gents stand in need, 
 
 They’ll not prove, in the end, but vain fears 
 
 When your ‘Move” has resolved you to bleed 
 
 But the wife whose good lord’s such a gunner. 
 
 Oh ! surely it ne’er much can shock her — 
 
 (When it don’t “break the peace'*) — to behold him 
 Extract a few “ shot from the locker /” 
 
 Yet, as oft there’s a sad going offf 
 
 E’en where much of guns appears known, — 
 
 Such a wife, if she’s wise, will entrust 
 
 The stock" in no hands but her own 1

 However, in o — r case, there's a thought 
 Which lessens the disapprobation ; — 
 
 Some at length, who’ve e’er sought B,hev pleasure^ 
 Content are with mere re-creation / 
 
 And hut right, sure, it is in those wights 
 
 Who’ve so oft put an end to men’s cares. 
 
 To try the sad loss — through their draughts — 
 
 To make up by their number of heirs ! 
 
 Yet, though to be greeted as Father!” 
 
 A pride in some breasts may inspire. 
 
 We can’t believe one e’er so merry 
 Really wishes to soon be a sire / 
 
 If he doesy oh 1 to others’ sad LOT, 
 
 ’Tis hoped, ere he leaps, he will look ; 
 
 For — Malthus-like — married men all 
 
 Should e’er a good eye keep to Hook !* 
 
 Oh ! what numbei‘8 of husbands have sigh’d 
 
 O’er their wives’ doctor’s bills till they’ve quiver’d ; 
 
 But, G a, should be ‘‘confined,” 
 
 There’ll no long ugly Bill be deliver’d ! 
 
 If a doctor he’d been, even Malthus, 
 
 Perhaps, would have held half his “ jaw 
 
 For he then might have cared scarce a rush 
 At finding his spouse in “the straw /” 
 
 Then, as those wise “faculty” lads 
 
 Than others have much less to fear, 
 
 It may please her fond youth should G a 
 
 Soon as mothery grow as stale, beer ! 
 
 * In Aberconway church-yard, Caernarvonshire, is the fol- 
 lowinjf Epitaph : — “ Here lieth the body of Nicholas Hook, of 
 Conway, Gent., who was the one-and-fortioth child of bis 
 father, WilUani Hook, Esq., by Alice his wife, and the father 
 of teven-and-twenty children. He died the 20th day of March, 
 1637.'’

 Quite a trump’* of a daddy he’d make. 
 
 All swear, when the question folks moot : 
 
 As a gunner like him, who so fit 
 
 To teach young ideas how to shoot /” 
 
 But 0 — r worthy’s young spouse (if our ears

 Won’t be of the sex quite the first 
 
 That has been through “ Old Harry'* d — mm’d !♦ 
 
 Oh ! as now on a virtuous hand 
 
 He constancy’s emblem has placed, — 
 
 While his “dear” wears the ring of “plain gold,” 
 
 We trust he’ll keep one that is chaste! 
 
 Yes, we should take care, when the fruits 
 Of Hymen we daily are reaping, 
 
 To have things with our altered state — 
 
 (And not still a ra — tr— ss) — “in keeping /” 
 
 But, as he’s blest with both beauty and youth, 
 
 Sure, o — r h — o won’t now prove a rover ; 
 
 For — if there’s no “snake in the grass " — 
 
 E’er at home he’ll be living “in clover!" 
 
 As such *‘^room" for complaint has the wife 
 
 Whose rAe«m-atic lord fast out keeps wearing. 
 
 Should G a ne'er sigh for a son, 
 
 She'll have cause to seem always / 
 
 And while by old age and gay youth 
 So unlike are the objects pursued. 
 
 Where in years there's a diffrence of fifty y 
 'Tis plain, there must be ybr(^*-tude!

Poor thing ! as grim Death never long

 Fair G a, — e’en should she not wish it— 
 
 How soon must the flower** be <‘in weeds!** 
 
 Should she see through the plot, and resent. 
 
 What a life for her dotard, — my stars I 
 
 Then — as well as nice pots in his shop — 
 
 In his house, oh, what “family jars!** 
 
 For full oft, as I’d have each youth know 
 Ere his “dear” he escorts to the altar. 
 
 Worse evils arise from the bridal

 While his days seem fast reaching their goal, 
 
 How some hands** — who’d fain stand near the g-reaf, 
 
 “Burn their flngers'* thro’ meddling with COAL ! 
 
 Yes, then he’ll repent it full sore. 
 
 That he e’er tried the heiress to win ; 
 
 And find — like each pair in Noah’s ark — 
 
 How nicely he’s been “ taken in /” 
 
 But, as gunners like him, who so blest? 
 
 They still have resources, we trace ; 
 
 For — whenever aught injures their nerves — 
 
 How soon they can go get “a brace!** 
 
 And, did you know the life led by young wives 
 Who are cursed with mates dull as logs. 
 
 You might guess how ’twill please gay G a

THE 
 
 SLY OLD W M MISS.‘‘DO”-ER! 
 
 A SONG. 
 
 IN IMITATION OF “ THB FINE OLD ENGLISH 
 
 gentleman/’ 
 
 I'll sing you a prime new song. 
 
 Made by a queer chap's pate. 
 
 Of a sly old W m Miss-^^do'^^eTy 
 
 Who had but ‘‘ man's estate 
 But who kept up an appearance 
 At a most expensive rate ; 
 
 With ‘‘flunkies" gay, to make display, 
 
 And stand about his gate, 
 
 Like a real English gentleman. 
 
 Born in these showy times ! 
 
 His house, so fine, was daily fill’d 
 With ladies “nice," and beaus. 
 
 And r— k — s, and sly old cronies. 
 
 Who had fed him ere he rose : 
 
 ’Twas there the worthy reign'd supreme, 
 
 In rich unpaid-for hose, 
 
 And gulp’d again his port till each 
 Had redden’d well his nose, 
 
 Like a real Bacchanalian, 
 
 Born in these sober times ! 
 
 When old age grim brought aches and pains. 
 He long’d to gain a spouse. 
 
 And though threescore, or near, his years, 
 He, youth-like, did “propose:" 
 
 Nor was the w — y hyp e 
 
 E’er driven from his hold ; 
 
 For soon he lured his simple fair. 
 
 And now he “melts" her gold. 
 
 Like a real dashing man of ton^ 
 
 Born in these sporting times ! 
 
V 
 
 But k 8, tho^ ^‘deep/’ meet their reward, 
 
 And plots soon we espy : 
 
 Now Rumour's busy tongue proclaims 
 The old boy soon must fly I 
 
 His V m has right gallantly 
 
 Pour'd forth her final sigh ; 
 
 A nobler spirit reigns within, 
 
 And ire is in each eye, 
 
 'Gainst this hen-peck’d old entr- -r. 
 
 Born in these fearful times ! 
 
 Now surely this is better far 
 Than yielding to the ills 
 
 Of a lonely wife, crabb'd age's whims, 
 
 Old cronies' ca Is, and pills ; 
 
 And much more economical, 
 
 For all the bills she pays : 
 
 Then leave your loath'd sed -r. Girl, 
 
 And ne'er more heed the ways 
 
 Of the heartless old Miss-^^^do^'-erSy 
 So common in these times ! 
 
 ALL IN MY PUSS! 
 
 A SONG. 
 
 IN IMITATION OF ALL ROUND MY HAT," 
 
 All in my puss I eyes the round shiners. 
 
 All in my puss for a nice good dip they lay ; 
 
 If any von should ax't how I gots at 'em. 
 
 Tell 'em that an heiress I lured, lured avay ! 
 
 'Twas a-going of my rounds 'mong the fiats'" I first 
 did meet her. 
 
 Oh I I thought she seem’d as green” as one just 
 from the nurse-ry ,* 
 
 And I never saw'd a chance more tempting or completer, 
 Vhen one cried, “ By Jove ! quite an heiress she'll 
 be by-and-bye!’' 
 
Oh ! my dupe she vos young, and my dupe she vos 
 ‘‘blind’* too, 
 
 And no counsel gived those stupid friends vot could 
 my dupe’s mind svay; 
 
 For to ved me vos a thing she never vos inclined to, 
 
 But I sent my dupe far off to Dan’s, snug, snug 
 avay I 
 
 For many long veeks my dupe from youths vos parted. 
 
 For many long veeks at Dan’s vos bound to stay ; 
 
 Good luck to that chap vot never vos falsehearted, (/) 
 
 Oh! I’ll love my Dan for ever, for he plann’d, 
 plann’d the vay I 
 
 There is some old ^^dogs” is so preciously designing, 
 
 A-coaxing of the simple gals they vish to make all 
 pay; 
 
 As soon as they have *‘done” ’em, so shamefully they 
 ‘^run” ’em. 
 
 And they never rests nor ceases till all’s spunged> 
 spunged avay 1 
 
 Oh I I saw’d my dupe of age ere to the church we 
 started, 
 
 Vhich did give her — as I hinted — power vith her 
 cash to play; 
 
 And though she may me hate, oh ! ve’ll never more be 
 parted. 
 
 For she’ll **fork out” and keep ‘‘bleeding” for many 
 a long day ! 
 
 All in my puss I eyes the round shiners. 
 
 All in my puss for a nice good dip they lay; 
 
 If any von should ax’t how I gots at ’em. 
 
 Tell ’em that an heiress I lured, lured avay !
