see how he's run away with all my gingerbread !—
Here valk, valk I suppose you think this man's
alive he's no more alive than you are!—— Who's
the next puts in a penny and tries his luck here
again? all prizes here, and no blanks!- Now's
your time to see that celebrated vonderful vooden
(illegible text) Mr Punch, for the small charge of one
penny !- Rot, tot, &c .— Hi down, &c.
O the whirligigs of Bartlemy fair-o.
JOCKEY THE SHEPHERD.
As Jockey went out in the fine dewey morning,
He carelessly laid himself under a bush,
He had not been long there till a damesel came by
And on this young youth she cast a languishing eye
Did you see my ewes my bonny young man,
With two little lambs that stray’d from their dam,
If you did, gentle shepherd, come tell me I pray,
For my ewes and ewe lambs do carelessly stray.
O yes, my fairest creature, I saw them pass by,
Down in yonder green wood there they do lye.
She turn’d right courteously and thank'd him with a blush,
Where Jockey follow’d after her and lay in a bush
She rang’d the green woods over and no lammies could find,
She instantly blam’d the young swain in her mind,
