SONG—THE PEEPING FAMILY.
AIR—" We're a' aoddin, &c.
WH ILE the Nobles of the Land all tesorting to the
Strand,
The splendid grace of Fashion and of Ornament command,
That we cannot do the same grieves our d.cldy and our dame,
And we're a' noddin, nid, nid, noddin,
We're a' tioddin, at our house at bame.
But our Johnnie comes in haste, with his Hoots in brilliance graed,
'that mirror-like the shadow of our grannum first embrac'd,
Like a tiny elf it 'read, in wild terror while she scream 'd ;
And we're a screaming, scream, scream, screaming,
We're a' streaming, at our house at hame.
The aukl ci.nkeed Carle next on the Jet his optics fis'd,
And saw two little devils with the Blacking intermied.
" There was only one before, now" hr said," there flits one more;
And they're a' flitting, flit flit, flitting,
They're a' flitting at oor house at !lame."
Then our minnie she would look, when by wit she setm'd forso•k,
Fat tar beyond the threshold to her nimble heels she took,
citing," Sit:, there were hut two, now three grimly ghaists I view,
And they're a coming, come, come, coming,
They're a' coming to our house at hame."
Now the cat began to scold, and our surly mastiff growl'd,
When Auntie peed the Jet in, and of other wonders told,
There the dog and cat both saw, then perp'd minnie, aunt, and a' ;
And we're a' peeping, peep, peep, peeping,
We're e peeping at our house at hame.
Then our Johnnie laugh'il aloud, of reflecting Blacking proud,
" Your shadows in the Jet," he said, " as in a mirror crowd ;"
So now WA URIN.S matchless fame, that we brightly may proclaim
We're a' blacking, black, black, blacking,
We're a blacking at our house at hame!
