The lawyer will rife with the firft of the mora
To hunt for a mortgage or deed ;
The hufband gets up at the found of the horn
And rides to the commons full fpeed ;
The patriot is thrown in purfuit of the game j

While fear-lefs o'er hills and o'er woodlands we fweep-
Tho' prudes on our paftime may frown,

And the fences of Virtue break down ?
Thus public, or private, for pennon, for place,
For amufement, for paflion, for fhew,
All ranks and degrees are engaged in the chacc s .
With hark forward, huzza, tally ho*
