A Paraphrase of the Latin Poem in the Week before last
paper, attempted.
To the tune of the Archbishop of Canterbury.
  A lack-a-day my muse has stray'd,
  Good people, tell me, saw ye her?
  I'll sing ye how, if sh'ell but aid,
  A poet trick'd a lawyer.
  . . . [3 verses]
  The lawyer saught another bard
  That writes you songs and verses,
  He begs for help, and cries so hard,
  And all the tale rehearses.
  . . . [5 more verses]
