The Bulls.

The Bulls.
Sec the jolly english bun,
Sec hin gs a''i's from h' 'aai''d a common belly
But in a drinking bout,
Johnny Bull has just began, when an ordinary man
Would drain pewter can st st
To the dregs.
And he stands. upon his legs, and as firmly on his
pegs, though as full as guinea eggs,
Till it's out
Swearing all the time, time time that it cannot be
crime, but Is even quite sublime,
To be drunk
And he boasts, and he toasts the military hosts, who
on the Euxine coasts r.
Show their spunk!
With soul Of ancient Romans, and a heart as soft
woman's, he brags about his Commons
And his peers,
God bless old Johnny Bull his tankard e'er be full
and his spirits never dull
For many years.
While his wit and mirth he pours, and with merry
humor roars, E8IEGt 8
As stu.diy as bulls, bulls bulls, bulls, bulls,
As loudly and as proudly as q BULL
Read the dismal Popish bulls,
Roman Bull, gG 8'la 3at 81
What a world Of solemn fear indulgence can hull,
How the legate, like pigeon carries missives of re-
Through the world,
Which are hurled, hurled, hurled,
From the aacriligious mouth Of the pontif in the
The apocayptic barlot in her robe Of gold and scar
let, Ike an impudent old varlet,
Ruling man,
While with faces pale and wan apprehensve Of ban
from the sacred vatican,
With terror full,
The people fear thee Papst who impertinenty apest
Like an insoent old cretnr the great Apostle Peter
In the issue Of bull, bull, bull, bull, bull,
In the writing and inditing Of q bull

Hear the funny Irish bull,
Curious Bull. fH fota
How ridiculous II seems to the heart with humor full
Az attentvely you list how preposterousy they twist
gh Every word,
And you even doubt your ear, and suspiciously you
fear that you didn't dnI rightfully hear
But to know old Erin right, you should go with me
at night to q rough and tumble fight,
In the centre of Tpperary fair,
Hear the loud and angry oath, and the drunken
laughter both ,,u.,. ~. ss3 NJ. n 4.
As they swear, swear, swear, and they curse, and
When Pat, with ruddy hair rushes in
With shiclah fourished high with expostuating cry,
and the devil in his eye,
He receives broken head and is carried out to bed
And by the Holy Virgin, how he curses at the sur
The Esculspan master, who would cure his sad dis
aetor, Win the 0lQ OF sucking pla5ter, a&
m But he pulls, @
And he kicks and fights and spiutters thougha word
he scarcely utters,
But in agony he muttcrs forth his bulls bulls bulls
bulls, bulls, 3As
And he mutters, and he splutters out his bulls.
See the mad and baited bull,
Spanish Bull,
How he bellows forth his rage, how he PUSHES to
gage in the battle he must wage
To his full
How he swclls his angry throat he issues forth the
note
Ofdespair
His antagonist with cause breads the stamping of
his paws, while he hears the loud applause,
On the bosom Of the palpitating air, .
And the people ah the people, who forsakc the chase
called stecple,
To inAict . cruel deep i'll on bull
The merry dons and ladies, from the famous town Of
Cadiz,
They are scarcely man or woman,
They are scarcely beast or human, &
They are FOOLS
To be looking at the bulls their eye with fury rolls
rolls, rolls
And they stamp and they tramp,
And they rush upon the scamp,
With the roaring and the gorng Of the bulls bulls
bulls bulls, bulls,
With the goring and the roaring Of the bulls.
