Th e FRENCH? E A SAN T.
A Farce.
TJ THEN things are done and pail tccalhng,
V V 1 sis foliv, then, to fiet or cry,
Piop up a rotten houle that’s falling,
But when it’s down e’en let it lye.
O patience, patience ! thoa’rt a jewel,
And. like all jewels, bard to find.
* W'onoQ ail the various men you fee,
Examine every mo het’s lon ;
You’ll find they all in this agree,
To make ten troubles out of one ;
Whempaflions rage, they heap on fuel,
Am! give their reason to the wind.
Hark I don’t you hear the general cry ?
“ Whose troubles ever equat'd mine ?”
‘ How readily each slander-by
Replies, with captious echo, “ mine.”
SC re from cur clime this difeprd springs t
Heav’n’s chdiceQ blessings we abule,
For ev’ry Englilhman alive,
Whether duke, lord, esquire or gent,
Claims, as his just prerogative,
Ease, liberty, and difeontent.
A Frenchman often Harves and sings,
With cheerfulnefs and wooden (hoes :
A peasant, of the true French breed,
Was driving in a narrow road,
A cart, with but one sorry Heed,
And fill’d with onions, fav’ry load I
Careless, he trudg’d along before,
Singing a Gafcon roundelay ;
Hard by there ran a whimp’ing brook ;.
Th’ road hung (helving tow’rds th’ brim ;
The fpiteful wind th’ advantage took ;
The wheel flies up, the onions swim ;
The peasant saw his fav’rite (lore,
At one rude blast, all pull’d away.
How would an Englilhman have f" orn,
To hear them plump, and Ice them roll ?
Have curs’d the day that he was born,
And, for an onion, damn’d his foul ?
Our Frenchman afled quite as well,
He ftopt (and hardly ftopt) bis long ;
First rais’d the bidet from his swoon ;
Then flood a little while to view
His onions, bobing up and down ;
At lad, he (hruggtng cry’d, “ Parbleu.”
Il ne manq'ici, que du Je'l,
Pour faire du potage excellent.”
