Summary

Unknown Deborah Dent and Her Donkey and Madam Fig's Gala

She sent for a barber, her Donkey to shave,
Marrowbones, cherrystones,
Bundle’em jig.
Cried Frizzle,—O, sir, what a strong beard you have!
This counsellor’s wig will make you look grave,
And then at the bar you may bellow and rave
Like an ambling, scambling,
Braying-sweet, turn-up feet,
Mane-cropt, tail-lopt,
High-bred, thistle-fed,
Merry old Bundle’em jig.
[18]
And now, since your talents are gen’ral, you know,
Marrowbones, cherrystones,
Bundle’em jig.
Set up an artist, take portraits also.
