Anecdote of the Duke of Cumberland. . . [Several paragraphs
relate the travels of the Duke of Cumberland, his wife Mrs.
Horton, and her sister, Miss Luttrell.  The two women argued
and fought.] 
Then it was, 
  That the gentle tip-tap, 
  Produc'd a severe slap, 
  And the cap lay torn on the ground;
  Plates, dishes, and platters, 
  Were broke into shatters, 
  Knives and forks they flew merrily round.
. . . [4 more paragraphs]
