The ADVENTURES of YOUNG WHIPSTITCH,
. A TALE.
f\ LONDON Taylor, (as ’tis said)
Y.-.V. By buckram, canvas, tape, and thread,
Sleeve linings, pockets, silk, and twist,
And all the long expensive list
\v ith which their uncouth bills abound,
1 hough rarely in the garment found,
By these and other arts in trade,
Had soon a pretty fortune made,
And did what lew had ever done,
Left thirty thousand to his son.
The son, a gay young swagg’ring blade,
Abhorr’d the very name of trade,
And, lest reflection should be thrown
On him, resolv’d to quit the town, s.
And travel where he was not known. j
In gilded coach and liv’ries gay,
To Oxford first he took his way;
1 here beaux and belles lus taste admire,
Mis equipage and rich attire;
But nothing was so much ador’d
As his fine silver hiked sword;
Though short and small, ’twas vastly neat,
The sight was deem’d a perfect treat.
Beau Banter begg’d to have a look,
But when the sword in hand he took,
He swoie by Gad it -was an odd thing,
And look’d much like a taylor’s bodkin.
His pride was hurt by this expression,
1 hinking they knew his sire’s profession;
Sheathing his sword he sneak’d away,
And drove for Glo’ster that same day.
and ..ere soon l.e found new cause for grief,
1-or, dining on some fine roast beef,
One ask’d him which he did prefer,
Some cabbage or a cucumber?
i ho purse proud coxcomb took the hint,
Thought it severe refitflion meant;
His stomach turn’d, he could not eat,
So made an ungenteel retreat,
Next clay left Glo’ster in great wrath,
And bade his coachman drive to Bath.
1 here he suspected ire3h abuse,
Because the dinner was roast goose;
Amd, that he might no m§rc be jeer’d,
Next day to Exeter be steer’d;
There w ith some bucks he drank about,
Unt l he fear’d they’d found him out;
His glass not fill’d,’ as was the rule,
They said ’twas not a thimble full;
The name of thimble was eaiougli,
He paid his reck’ning and went off
He then to Plymouth took a trip, ‘
And put tip r.t the Royal shin, L
Which then was kept by Caleb Snip. f
“ Snip,” “ Snip!’’ the host, was often call’d,
At which his guest was so much gall’d,
1 hat soon to Cambridge he remov'd.
r I here too he unsuccessful prov’d;
For though he fill’d his glass or cup,
He did not ahvaj s drink it up. 1
The Scholars mark’d how he behav’d,
And said a remnant sha’n’t be sav’d.
Tlie name of remnant gall’d him so,
That he resolv’d to York to go;
1 here fill’d his bumper to tlie top,
And always fairly drank it up:
“ Well d ° n e, (fays Jack, a buck of York)
“ You go through stitch, sir, with your work.”
J ne name of stitch was such reproach,
. He rang the bell and call’d his coach;
But, ere lie went, inquiries made,
By what strange means they knew his trade.
“ put the cap on, and it fits,”
(Repli’d one cf tlie Yorkshire wits;)
Our words, in common acceptation,
u Could not find out your occupation;
“ T was you yourself gave us the clue,
u To find out both your trade and jou.
“ Vain coxcombs and fantastic beaux
“ In every place themselves expose;
“ They travel far, at vast expence,
1 o shew their wealth and want of sense;
u But take this for a standing rule,
“ There's no disguise can screen a fool.”
