That took place at Vauxhall Oldie day;
When DUlfiiii4, for the Regent, in state,
The iirit stone of a New Bridge did la/ :
A fabric compOsed of stow,
With seven arches spacious and wide,
Which fur strength will he equall'd by nrrie ;
When erected, 'twill he London's pride!
This Famous Pridge of the Regent;

Through the Country new Bridge& each day,
In succeuion are springing to view;
And subscrib,:rswill vauntingly say,
They their Country's good only pursue;
But when once they're erected, we'll fad
This truth most apparent to all,
That their aim is but raising the wind,
And that passengers o'er must pay to,
'To this famous Budge of the Rejmat
0, this famous Bridget :

But I'll tell, if you'll list to my tune,
The best Bridge you will.ever past o'er,
Is the Lvtseiy, which draws 4th of,anme,
Which has arches not leaf than threescorett
resist every cue rent and tides
For Twenty Thoustouts the CapiSsie am&
Even misfortune's rude blasts 'twill abide,
hints there 711 Prizes at every Pier!
To tilt's farred Lotter/ of the lcurst

One Toll is the whole you need pay,
'Tis 4 small as the poorest can wish ;
Strengeh and beauty combin'd 'twill display,
For the Architect is Mr. Bi s !
About Bridges I now must have done,
But not 'till this fact I've first told,
"rho' the Bridge of the Regent is Stone,
Yat the Loney of the Regent is Gold I
Gold is the Lottery of the Regent ;
Op the Golder. Lottery.
