And I will go with him his Budget to bear ;
For of all the young Men he has the best luck,
All the Day he will Fuddle, at Night he will —

By reason she knew that he had a good —

To lusty Tom Tinker, Tom Tinker by Name ;
And tho' she was Aged near threescore and five,
She kickt up her Heels and resolved to —
