But for some counter-Teasons, far strong,

And frosty Winter came, and went, and came
And still, thro' all the seasons of two years,
In park, in city, yea, at routs and balls,

BACHELORS HALL.

Bachelors Hall! what queer looking place it is!
Kape me from such all the days of my life;
Sure, but think, what burnin disgrace it is,
Never at all 10 be getting wife.
See the old bachelor, gloomy and sad enough,
Placing his takettle the fire,
Soon it tips over--Saint Patrick! he's mad enough
(If he were presently to fight with the squire.
Now like hog, in mortar-bed wallowing
awkward enough) him kneading his dough;
Troth if the bread he could ate without swallowing,
How 1t would favor his palate you know.
His dshcloth is missing, the pigs devourng it,
In the pursuit he has battered his SHIN
A plate wanted washing, grimalkin is securing it;
Tunder and Turf, what pickle he's in
Pots, dishes. and pans, such greasy commodities.
Ashes and prata-skns the floor,
His cupboard's a storehouse of comical oddities,
Things that had never been neighbors before
His meal being over, the tables left sitting so,
Dishes, take of yourselves if you can!
But hunger returns, then he's tuning and retng so,
Och! lei him alone for haste of man!
Late in the night then he goes to bed shiyerin'.
Never the bit is the bed made at all,
He creeps like terrapin under the kiverin'-
Bad luck to the picture of Bachelors Hall!
