THE BUNGLERS:
OR,
BRITISH BACCHANALS.
To the tune of" Greer, grew the Fufnes, 0•"
When Frenchmen 6ro attack'd their crown,
And turn'd it topfy 'torvy, O,
Then knock'd the r Popilh Temple s down,
The trick was coifed kurvy, O ;
'Twas then we t<ok tip arms to fight,
To bring them to their finks, 0 ;
But (till the rogues maintain they're right,
While we pay all expences, 0.
CHORUS.
Push about the glares, 0—
Push about the glares, 0 !
For what care we how things go on,
While blushing nedar passes, 6 !
When Englishmen firft went to war,
In thousands how we gather'd 'em.
And sent them o'er to Flanders far:
But there the Frenchmen lather'd 'em,
Now Leopold's all conquering son
Sent countless hords to (laughter them,
And made the ragged rascals run:
But. well a day b', as after them !
Fufh about the gaffes, 0, &c.
Pen let your fnarlers take their scope,
We'll prove Old England civil, 0,
And fight for either Turk ortPope,
Or their good friend,—the Devil, 0 !
Nor care we, if the war ffiould yet
Continue years full twenty, 0;
taufe people all so fancy gPt,
When they have peace and plenty, 0 I
Pujh about the glasses, 0, &c.
We'll call in Fox without delay,
To save the hate, if able,O;
for “ when the dead is dole away,
'Tis time to Ihut the (table, 0."
Yet here's to every fool in place,
And eke each noble petitioner ,
Bit as to that site jade DISGRACE,
For God's f^ko-ever mention her !
Pujh about the glares, O, &c.
Those men we find cat battle well,
Whom once we counted menkies, 0;
And by a kind of magic spell,
. Have prov'd their foes but dnnkies,O!
Yet stilt these vengeful pelts <4 kings,
Pursue the German Eagle, O,
And have so dipt his gaudy wings,
Hi hardly now looks regel, 0 !
Pujhabout the glasses, 0, &c.
Jf grangers henceforth dare to brag,
Os Liberty or Reason, 0,
We'll then apply our new State Gag—
And tuck 'em up for treason, 0!
Then let us all carouse and drink ;
For till affair) grow riper, 0,
Folks mud not fay, tho' they may think—
That Johnny pays the piper, O!
Pujh about the glares, 0, &c.

DESTINY has decreed all men to die ; but to
die well is the particular privilege ot the virtuous
and good.
As there is no covenant to be made with death,
so no agreement for the arrest and Itay of time ;
It keeps its pace, whether weeileem and use it well
or not.
How poor will power, wealth, honor, fame &
titles seem at our last hour ? And how joyful will
that man be, who hath led an honest, virtuous
life, and travelled to heaven, though through the
roughed ways of poverty, affliction & contempt.

As drunk as an owl ; as drunk as a hog, as
drunk as a beggar , as drunk as the devil ; as
drunk as a lord :—Thefe are the principal tom,
