With names of tbofe, whogo to caper.

In parish make a deal of rumpus.
Make people mad enough to thump ue, rt
And beat it into man, a thick bead,
This 'Junketing is kind of wicked?
But left wrbawe a scanty ball,
Will take in marri'dfolks, and till.
There's Peter Grievous with his black wife.

THeTfOP. I
A Character, after the maraner of &&,.1
LIE is mitre de ctremonii to tie 1
public, and gentleman other to|
* who wants me ?" At his fervicet I
are of no value, he offers them co er-|
ery one gratis ; and as no one else I
refpeas him, he does it himfelf, and |
gives himfelf the preference in all 1
companies. Modesty being a fenfe|
of unworthiness which he never feels,|
he thinks it a rascally virtue, and I
tfeats it with propsr contempt. His |
civility is like the civility of the bang-\
man to the felon—it is only that he |
may execute his designs upon you |
the easier. He endeavors to convince
you of his kiodnefi and importance
by infignificant trifles, well knowing
lie can never do it by any thing of
moment. (There is ar much finceri |
ty in his politenefe as there is in " yourl
humble servant” at the foot of a
challenge ; and as it it made after no
pattern, and 00 particular person us
es it long, it fits all alike, and is nev
er the worse for wear. He pays
more attention to roles and forms
than to persons a&htags ; and if
he can but keep up ippeatanca, nev
er troubles himfelf about realities.—l
The world to him is a big stupid &,
on which he fancier no one it so good
a right to ride aa himfelf. A. he in
made by the ladiea for themselves, so
he believes all ladm made for him, &
ufa them accordingly. He it a ge

that he may fulfil the f&frft &r
places himfelf " the firftditare'
last ac afight." His favors are so
common and cheap, that no body
ifets an, value on them but himfelf ;
therefore, as they are generally re
turned protested, he has always a fab
ficient flock on hand tor every occa
sion. He ia true as the weathercock
tythe wind, and about as constant :
Ifor he will always forfake an old lov

they were fpoilt with age.
