Nothing under heaven U
Ny delight can mar W

Bless me this Is pleasant,

High aud lOwly people,
Men Of every station,
flushing nadly by me,
Each IN his vocation,
Look NJ me with envy,
Longing for my pleasure,
Wishing they were also
Happy men Of leisure,
Looks Of admiration
From the ladies fair,
Speak their approbatloni
While their smiles declare
That I please their fancy,
With my looks 10 fine,
Aud, IN aet, pronounce Tue
Rightly, quite divine,
Ancient maiden lady
Walking stiniy by,
Acts a. II she liked not
Fellows such a. I,
This her outward seeming,
Inwardly, I know
That she eau hut think me
Quite q handsome beau,
Young aud pretty maiden,
Tripping down the street,
Bushes when her glanccs
Happen mine 20 meet
Looks q little pouiy
As II she'd like to say,
'Impudent young iello"
Look the other way"
Al the while I'm certain
That she likes me well,
Sure am she's battered
More than SHE eau tell
To receive the homage
ora man so hne,
one who rightly boasteIh
Whlskcrs so divine,
Staring at the ladies,
surely what treat
Bless me this Is pleasant,
Loalng on the street.
