A STUDY IN THREE-FoLD RHYMES BY THOMAS HOOD
Even IL come, and from the dark park, bark,
The signal of the setting sun-one gun!
And six is soundipG1ffom the chime-prime time
To 90 and see the Try Lane Dane slain,
or hear Othello's Jealous doubt spout out;
Or Macbeth raging at that shade made blade
Denying to his frantic clutch much such;
Or else to see Ducrow, with wide stride ride
-Four horses as no other man cen span;
Or in the small Olympic pit sit Spit,
Laughing at Liston while you quiz his phiz.
Anon night comes and with her wings brings things
Such as with his poetic tongue, Young sung;
The Gas up blazes with bright white light,
And paralytic watchmen prowl, howl, growl,
About the street. and take up Pall-Mall Sal,
Who, trusting to her nightly jobs robs fobs,
Now thieves do enter for your cash, smash. crash,
Past drowsy Charley in deep sleep creep,
But frightened by Policeman Is 3. flee, 40
And while they're going whisper low, mo go!
Now puss while folks are in their beds, treads leads
And sleepers, waking, grumblc, "Drat that cat!
Who in the gutter, caterwauls, squalls, mauis
Some feline foe and screams in shrill i'll Will
Now bulls of Bashan of prize size, rise
In childish dreams, and with roar gore poor
Georgy, or Charles or Billy, willy nilly;
But nurse-maid, in a nightmare rest chestpressed,
Dreameth of one of her old 6ames james Games,
And that she hears-what faith is man's-Anns banns
And his from Rev. Mr.. Rice, twice, thrice;
White ribbons flourish, and stout shout out,
That upward goes, shows Rose knows those bows
