THERE were three flies, once on a time Resolv'dlo travel and change their clime. For they neither cared for father nor mother Fornncle nor aunt, nor sister, nor brother The first was a yellow one, the second was blue, And the third was a green one to the view So off they set with merry hums. And told their parents to kiss their bums. CHORUS.

But the blue bottle answer'd—upon my word I sees nothing but a large cow t A cow t , well, there,s good in that — I'm sure it looks monstracious fat ; And I wish as how I may go to Davy, If I don't have some of that rich gravy. But the others too dainty were by lialf— I can't sing if you do laugh, &c. Away they flew the other two, Jacky Green and Tommy Blue ; * They flow'd on fast and did not stop, 'Till they came opposite to a butchers shop " Oh, oh, says the blue-bottle, ' Here's a treat ! I'm particularly fond of butcher's meat," Says t'other, says he, " Then off I go. For I don't care for meat, you know." But he too dainty was by half — I can't sing &c. Far off then by himself he flow'd. And into a grocer's shop he goed! And there he play'd some saucy rigs. For he danc'd among the sugar, and the plums, and the figs. The day being hot he took a whim. And thought iH some treacle he should like to swim, (he goes. So without considering consequences, in And didn't even stop to takeoff his clothes But the treacle he found too thick by half I can't sing&c. The other two pass'd by the door. And heard a voice they'd heard befoie; So nearer to the sound they got, 'Till they lighted on the treacle pot. There they saw him almost dead.

TH E lady-bird skims o'er the wood- bine, Tlie bees in the Hly repose, The summer fly rests on the cowsHp, But love lies asleep in the rose. The rose is the casket of Cupid, His spell from its redoline flows, Beware of the hand that [wesents it, For love lies asleep in the rose. The lady-bird flaunts from your presence The bee thrills your lip with a smart The summer fly fluttei*s around you, But love plants a thorn in the heart. The rose is the casket of Cupid, Its perfumes with soft magic flows, Let the hand of affection present it, For love lies asleep in the rose. J. X\ IJ 1 1 1 TAB OF THE NIGHT. J.

And make the night day with the light of your eyes. That fairer than yon no one ever may prove. The bright mould that form'd you they've broken my love. And now you alone can your image renew. Then Oh! for creation's sake, rise dearest do. The day light has long been sunk, &c. Pretty star of my soul! Heaven's stars all outshining, Sweet dream of my slumbers ! Ah, k)ve, pray you rise ?

Poor Little' S W E E P. J. Catnach, Printer, London. Sold by Marshall, Bristol, & James Sbarman, Cambridge ON a cold winter's morn as the snow was a fall- ing. When a child of misfortune so loudly was bawling Sweep oh! he cries for the snow is very deep, So 1 pray take compassion on a poor little sweep. Tears from his eyes in large drops were fast falling You noted for pity whose hearts have controuling You men of discerning who are not yet asleep. Don't you hear the sad wailing of a poor little sweep He contmued to cry but no strangers to pity, But they laugh'd at his grief while they banter'd his dftty. Oft times they forwarned him a distance to Keep, And he cry'd take compassion on a poor little sweep At the steps of a door half frozen and dejected. He set there to mourn his complaints were neg- lected. Till a kmd hearted damsel by chance saw him weep And her heart bled with sorrow for the poor little sweep. She took his cold hand to a neighbours she led him Warm'd his Umbs by the fire & tenderly fed him. But ah how surprised with joy did she weep. When she found a lost brother in poor little sweep Long time did she ga/e on each sutty blackfeature To her bo jom she pressed and said thou sweetcre.?- ture, I'll haste t ott£ bomc you no longer shall weep . And a sweet little mouth, about twelve inches wide Her hair curled like the tail of a rat. With a hump like a Camel's, stuck on her back, And her voice is as sweet as any jackdaw, Now what do you think of my sister-in-law. And as for her learning, she beats me quite hollow She grins like a donkey, through a horse's collar. And her beautiful dancing-, it would you surprise. Why she jumps Jim Crow, nearly equal to Rice She is a (iabster at leap-frog, or flying a kite. And if her pals they offend her, she is a devil to fight, [tatr, She can play well at duckstone, buck-ubout or ring- What an accomplished woman is my sister-in-law. Such a delicate stomach she has got I declare, At her dinner she drinks only six pots of beer. Eats a .«irloin of beef, and a bushel of taters. Nine quarts of stewed eels, with pickles and capers, Then away to the pastry-cook's shop she will go, And wolf saiT'siige rolls, till scarce aule to blow. Such a lot of stale buns she crams into her maw, What a delicate stomach has my sister-in-law. Then off to a free and easy she will go. Where she swigs half-and-half, while her bacco sbe blows, Like an Hottentot Venus she sticks in the chair, Where she knocks down the songs, yes, and knock down the beer. Then staggers off home, and staggers up stairs, And my brother she lugs out of bed by the ears. Then like a pig m the mire, she sprawls on ttie floor, ^ What a beautiful creature is my sister-in-law. One night as my brother lay snug in his bed, The chamljcr utensil she threw at his head, When he bolted upright and these words he did say I wish that the devil would fetch you away. Wlien a figure in black, in the room did appear, Saying, I have come ior my sister, I know she » here, Popt her into his sack and flew out of the door, i And that is the way I got rid *)f my sister-in-law DICKEY BIRDS listen to my song and you'll not deny my words I'll quickly prove that all mankind are nothing more than birds, Whether in the east or whether in the west, You own man makes a study to feather well his nest So listen to my song and you'll not deny my words This world is but a nest and all mankind are birds The banker is a goldfinch which no one can deny The carpenter's a woodcock 'tis plain to you and I The singer is a nightingale whose sweet notes will delight.

At church I met her dressed so neat, One Sunday in hot weather. With love 1 found my heart did beat, As we sung psalms together; So p ously she hung her head. The while her voice did shake, ah 1 bought if ever 1 did wed, Twould be with Betsy Baker. Frtm her side r could not budge. And sure I thought no harm on't, My elbow then she gave a nudge. And bade me mind the sarment ; When church was over ©at she walked. But I did overtake her, Determined i would not be baulked, I spoke to Betsy Baker. Her manners were genteel and cool I found, on conversation, She'd just come from boarding-school, And finished her education ; But love made me speak out quite free. Says I I've many an acre, Will you give me your company, I shan't, says Betsy Baker. All my entreaties she did slight, And 1 was forced to leave her, got no sleep all that there night, For love had brought a fever; The doctor came, he smelt his cane, With long face like a Quaker, Said he, " Young man, pray, where' thy pain?^' Say;^ 1, " Sir, Betsy Baker." Because 1 was not bad enough. He Muted and he pilled v^e. And, if I'd taken all his stuff, 1 think he must ha' killed me; I put an end to all the strife, 'Twixt him and the undertaker, And what d'ye think 'twas saved my 'ifc Why thoughts of Betsy Baker. I then again to Betsy went, Once more with love attacked her But mean time she got acquainted, Wi' a ramping mad play actor; If she would have him, he did say, A lady he would make her, .^ He gammoned her to run away. ^ And I lost Betsy Baker.

At siege or battle I ne'er was disgrac'd, I have always my king and my country fac'd, Done every thing for my country's weal, And feasted on bannocks of barley meal. I'll quickly lay dowa my sword and my gun, Put on a blue bonnet with plaidey abien, With silk tartan hose, and my leather heel'd shoon. Then I'll become a bright sprightly loon; When I'm so drest from top to toe, A courting away to Maggy I'll go, With my dirk and my hanger hung down to my heel, She'll feast me on bannocks of barley meal. Then I'll bring a rich present unto my dear, A bunch of green ribbons for Maggie to wear, All this I will give, and as much mair, If she would but go to Glasgow fair. And when we are married, wc^'ll keep a cow, My Maggie will milk it, and I will plough ; Feast all the long winter on beef and long kail, And whang at the bannocks of barley meal. If ray Maggie should chance to bring forth a son, Let him light for his king, as his daddy hath done, (learn, And send him to Flanders some breeding to Then bring him to Scotland to keep a farm. All this I will do, and industrious be, Who will be so hap])y as Maggy and me, She'll soon turn as fat as a Norvvay seal, When feasting on bannocks of barley meal. Farewell to you cities and towns all around, The rattling of coaches down Drury-lane. Ye bucks of the fashion I bid you adieu, Your loaring and swearing I'll leave it with you. For 1 am resolv'd for a country life, No longer to live in that sorrow and strife ; I'll off to the Highlands fast as I can drill, There I'll feast on bannocks of barley meal. J.

All nature knows our triumph. Strange birds about us sweep — Strange things come up, to look at us, The masters of the deep, In our wake, like any servant, Follows even the bold shark, Oh, proud must be our Admiral, Of such a bonny barque. Oh, proud must be our Admiral, Through he is pale to-day. Of twice five hundred iron men, Who all his nod obey ; Who've fought for him, & conquer'd, Who've won with sweat and gore ! Nobility, which he shall have, Whene'er he touch the shore. di, would I were an Admiral, To order with a word. To lose a dozen dropsof blood, And straight rise up a lord j I'd shout, to yon sharks there. Which follow in our lee, Some day ril make thee carry me. Like lightning tLroiigh the sea. Our Admiral ^^rew paler, And paler as we flew, Still talk'd he to the officers, And smiled upon the crewj And he looked up at the heavens, And he look,d down on the sea. And at last he saw the creatures. That was following in our lee, He shook — "'twas but an instant. For speedily the pride. Ran crimson to his heart, T ill all chances he defied ; It threw boldness on his forehead, Gave firmness to his breath. And he lookM like some warrior. Now risen up frotn death. That night a horrid whisper. Fell on us where we lay, And we knew our fine old Admiral, \Vas changing into clay ! And we heard the pash of waters, though nothing we could see. But a whisile and a plunge, Among the billows on our lee. Till morn we watch*d the body, In its dead, and ghastly sleep ; And next evening at sunset : It was flung into the deep, And never from that moment !

But the devil a spark of fire is in the grate, My wife she lays snoring like a pig in a stye. But there's never a bit of breakfast for I. If I ask her to rise, O she flies in a pet, And bawls out begone, for it's time enough yet, Get thy breakfast tlivself, and be ofT to thy work, And do not not stay here for to idle and lurk. The dinner-time comes to my home I repair, 'Tis a thousand to one if my wife I find there. She's gadding about with the child on her knee. And the devil a sign of a dinner for me: © could 1 but once more be single again. The finest of women should ne'er me trepan. And so I'd remain ail the days of my life. Great iuck to the man that has got such a wife. At night when I come sadly tir'd from my work, vVhen 1 open the door she let's fly like a Turk, Take that young squalling brat, and get it to sleep, for all the day long no peace ean I keep.

L BOLD BRENNAN IT'S of a fearless highwaymau a story 1 wiii tell, His name was WiUie Brennoii in Ireland he did dwell, And on the Livart mountaine b« commenced his Avild career, "VMiere many a wealthy gentleman before him shook with fear. Bold and unda\mted stood bold Brennan on the moor. A brace of loaded pistols, 'he carried night and day, He never robb'd a poor man upon the King's highway ; But when he'd taken from the rich like Turpin and Black Bess, But he always did divide it with the widow in distress. One night he robb'd a packman, his nanie was Pedlar Brown, They travell'd on together till the day began to dawn ; The pedlar seeing hia money gone, likewise his watch and chain, He at once encountered Brennan and robb'd him back again. When Brennan seeing the pedlar was as good a man as he, He took him on the highway his companion for to be, The pedlar threw away his pack without any more delay, An^Droved a faithful comrade until his dying day. One cray upon the highway, as Willie he sat down, He met the Mayor of Cashel, a mile outside the town ; The mayor he knew his features, I think, young man, said he, Your name is Willie Brennan, you must come along with me. As Brennan's wife had gone to town, provisions for to buy, \^'hen she saw her Willie, she began to weep and cry. He says, ' Give me that tenpence ? * as soon as Willie epoke, She handed him the blunderbuss from underneath her cloak. Then with his loaded blunderbuss, the truth I will unfold, He made the mayor to tremble and robb'd h im of his gold. One hundred pounds was offered for his apprehension there, And with hia horse and saddle to the mountains did repair. Then Brennan being an outlaw, upon the mountains high, * \^'^e^e cavalry and infantry to take him they did try ; He laaighed at them with scorn, until at length, 'tis said, By a false-hearted young man he waa basely betrayed. In the county of Tipperary in a place they call Olonmore, Willie Btennan and his comrade they did suffer sore ; He lay among the fern which was thick upon the field, And nioe wounds ke did receive, before that he did yield. Then Brennan and his companion knowing they were betray'd He with the nnounted cavalry a noble battle made ; ^ He lost his foremost finger, which was ehot off by a baU^ So Brennan and his comrade they were taken after all. Sq they were taken prisoners, in irons they were bound, And conveyed to Clonmel jail, strong v?all8 didjthem surround They were tried and foun4 guilty, the judge m?de this reply, * For robbing on the King's highway, you are both condemned to die. Farewell ! unto my wife, and to my children three. Likewise my aged father, he may shed tears for me ; And to my loving mother, who tore her gray locks, and cried, Saying, ' I wish Willie Brennan, in your cradle you had died.'

Evening descended. Our froHcs were ended. Lads and their lasses tripped lightly away ; It was then that hewoo'd me.

And siitsfles ones list loo I [iray, Somii pood advice to yon I'll mention, Heod the words that I to you now say. Married womt'n be true to your htishatid^. If happy vou'd pass through your lives, And husbands adopt the saino good plan. Be constant and true to your wires. Thfn listen to me ' If you would live happy together, As you steer through the troubles of life, Depend that this worlds great treasure. Is a kind and a good tempered wifv. From the time of this worlds first formation, You will find that it has bein tlie plan, In every country ajid nation, That woman was formed to please man ; And man for to love and protect them, And shield them from the fiowns of the Wdrld, Through the smooth paths of life to direct them, He who would do less is a churl. Then listen to me ! If you would live happy together, Sec. Some men will illuse a good woman, And say all they do turns out wrong. But as I mean to offend no one, You'll find faults to both sides belong ; But if bcth were to look at the bright side, And each others mind cease to pain, They will find they have looked at the right aide, For all would be summer again. Then listen to me ! If you would live happy together, &e. Married women don't gossip or tattle, Rettieraber it oft etirs up strife. But attend to yonr childrens soft prattle, And the duties of mother and wife ; And men if you need recreation. With selfish companioni don't roam, Who might lead you to sad degradation. But think of your comforts at home. Then listen to me ! If you would live happy together, tc. Vow a word I must give to the single. Before I make end of my song, If in matrimony you'd mingle, Believe me Pll not lead yov wrong ; Young man if you wish for a good wife. By finery never be led. And girls if you wish for a smooth life* Seek Uie man who will work for his bread. Then littea to me ! If ftm WAuld liv« happy tog^tW &•. KAiVE Faith in one another. IJav?, faith in oDe another, when ye tneet in .^ri«i d- fchip'si uanie. For the true friend is u brother, and his he \A should throb the same, Though your path in life may differ, sinct 'he hour when first we met, Have faith m one another,^ye may need thatfriei J ship yet. Have faith in one another, when you >*higper Iov^'h fond \ow ; It will not be always gummer, or always bright as now ; And when winter time comes o'er ye, if some k';)» dred heart ye share, And have faith in one another, ye shall never kn >w despair. And when winter time, &c. Have faith in one another, for should doubt al<»ue incline, , It would make the world a desert, wh£re the s i:i would never shine ; We have all some transient sorrow, that o'ti • shadows us to day. But have faith iu one another, and it soou shall p^ii away. Have faith in one anothter, and let honour be ycniw* guide ; And let truth alone be spoken whatever may hi • tide ; The false may reign a season, and oh ) doubt ROt but it will, Biit have faith in on« another and the truth sha'J triumph still.

'M.o' the rabble did call, in respect for the Hall Ijiit lo you I 11 tell tlie trutli, 'ilio' njy sides ihty did save, from the furious blaze, It has stoich'd my ancient roof. CHORUS. 0« the Friday mom, when the fire was gone i 'That had ravaged St. Stephens' Wall, I heard this oration, or conversation, Between the Abbey & Westminster Hall Says the Abbey, my friend, I thought you^as at an end. For 1 heard L-d A p bawl, Come Jend »n hand, the Commons be d— d, But s;ive, O save the Hall ! And there was Middlesex Joe, who not long For a New House did move, I'm told, Was in a rare pet, and a devilish sweiu, In trying to save the old. There was Munsfer Fitz carnce, had a very near thance, I'd have given his life for ayarrfo/i. He swore n;ost stout, that the fire to I'oit, It would lake all llie River Jordan. But I'm still in a quanJary, for they say 'twas an Incendiary, That made m« so precious hot. What'i more, I hear, th il S\a ing is here. And 1 fchall soon go to pot. Oh ! no, says the Abbey, he'll not be so shabby A» to burn either me or you. For in ricks or barns and country f^irms. He finds" ]>lertty of woiK to do But this I hear, though Saving's not here, '('here's a «Ban of greater ieno>\n; Fam'd Guy Faux c)f old, has rose again, we are told, And the other tJay canne inlo town. Savs the Hall, I eah*t see, between you & me, How (his fire it fi^rst occurred. In the Ccnimons soiie say, the M* mbsrs ihat day. Set fire to' the House with hot words. Yet by some it is said, the last speech that was ma'le. Was so warm in that cause we admire ; •So the Broom we must blame, for he kindled the flame, For his words set the hou^e all on fire. Says the Abbey, oh, dear! ^such things I did hear, I am sure 'twas a shame and disgrace. For the rabble's vile cries, at each flame thai did rise. Made me blush, for I was red in the face. One said, I declare, the Reform s in the air, And the Temperance Bill is tip-raisd, Hume's motion is won, by a majtrity of fr««^ And the Poor- Law is all in a blaze. But, my friend, we can boastf we have hng stood oyrj)ost, Though the times are much altered, alas ! When we were budt, I've heard say, men had a penny a day. And no luw of oppression could pass.

Parody on " The Sicilian Maidr BIRT, Printer, 39, Great St. Andrew Street Seven Hialsy London, I loved sich a charming young maid, Whose dad was a sulty old elf, And he vos so wild 'cos the jade His darter would pilfer his pelf; He lock'd her sometimes in the cell, With a precious stout padlock and key. When she on vun cold night, poor girl^ Squinted up through a crevice on me. In this manner from her I was barrVl, 'Cos he said 1 should ruin the mai,f; I vos told, which vos rather too hard, This ere maid them ere same words had said. So vun night with rage hot as Are, [ went with a skeleton key— I said I a stick may require. So I'll certainly take vun with me Some dust carts I saw in the road. By vun to his crib vos conveyed, I bawi'd 'liar ! liar V and arouseed the old toad. And shortly knock'd down this fair maid. Oh, he and two chums, with a light. With their shovels ihey pitched on to me Which turned to a regular fight, And I jolly well millM 'em all three. THE liOTEIiY Tillage Maid. TUNE— THE FARMER'S BOT. Printed by T.

I am General Nosey, gallant and cosey. Knocked about from pillar ta post. I am made of metal you all well know, Stuck up in the air to frighten the crows, 1 am a jolly old Duke without a hunch, Bad luck to that little rascal Punch. CHORUS. He has caused a row at the sign of the Crown. And the Queen declares I shall come down. I was brought to my destination in pain, By a lot of fellows »vho smelt of grains ; And placed a loft so fine and clever. In wind and rain, and frosty weather. I have been in Spain and Portugal too, All over the world and Waterloo ; When they take me down I will let them see If I don't wop them may the d—l wop me, Powder and pipeclay, bullets and guns. Shall tl>e scum of the earth at me make fun? To shove me about, oh ! England shame, From Hyde Park Corner to Rosemary Lane. If there I go J will quickly pilch, M y enemies into the Tower ditch ; And if you don't keep me my friend Bob, By the tip of my nose I will muzzle your nob. 1 heard young Vic. and her husband talk, As they were going up Birdcage Walk ; For I can hear a terrible way. And he must come down the Queen did say. By my Waterloo nose had them I got nigh, 1 would have shoved a broomstick bang in their eye ; They railed at me as they did stand. And Albert called me a funny old man.- As through the Park they rode one day, Vic said to me get out of the vray ; Soldiers breeches, I was so savage, 1 could have knocked her down with a German sausage. An old soldier is like a worn out horse, From pillar to post they will him toss ; Lie down and die he surely may, If he can*t live on a tanner a day. I know as the folks pass by they grunt, Bad luck to that little rascal Punch ; He could'nt be quiet you plainly see. But trouble his ugly head with me. You gents and ladies who know me, Quite welcome to take my place you be j And day and night, all vveathers complete And you will be tired in less than a week^ I must come down as may be seen, Yes, must come down so says the Queeo ; They are going to put me somewhere else. So let Al. and the Queen go up tbemseives I was made by Wyatt the people say. And placed up here one fatal day ; Where long 1 have suffered you may suppose. And the wind blew of the tip of my no«e^ Take me down Queen Vic, alack ! And place me on Prince Albert's back ; If he carries me safe to Windsor Town, I will make him a present of a ^haif a crown.

Fight on, my brave boys, for England's joy. We'll conquer or Ave'll nobly die. Now we have gained the victory. And l)ravely kept the field, We've taken a number of prisoners.

Good people give allenlion and listen to tny rhymes, " I'll sing about the fashions that's in vogue the prestiit time, The ladies once wore bustles, now they think they can't be fine, Without a bat and feather and a fancy crinoline. Just twig the preily ladies, now don't they cut a shine, With a dandy hat and feather and a fancy crinoline. As I was walkiiis? through the street not many days ago, I met a gal who said she was looking for a beau ; She invited me to go with her, I said I did not mind. For she look'd just like au au^el Ure&scd in her crinoline. She took me to a splendid house with cushions on the chairs. She treated me with brandy, then she took me up the stairs, Slie nndressd me very kindly and said she would be mine, But 1 cursed the night that ever I admired her crinoline. I had a 8plenv 8ong ON THE BLOOMER C08TUME. Oh, did you hear the news of late, According to the rumours, The pretty ladies one and all, Are going to join the bloomers. Since Mrs. Dexter's come to town. She says, oh what a row sir, The men shall wear the petticoats And ladiQs wear the trousers. Oh, did you hear, &c. Now Mrs. Dexter's come to town, She says, she'll not be lazy, But quickly turn the ladies brains. And set the men all crazy, Old maids and lasses fine and gay, Short stumpy tall and bandy, I-iong petticoats now throw away, And beat the yanky dandy. Prince Albert and the Queen one day Had such a jolly row sirs. She threw off her petticoat And put on boots and trousers ; Won't it be funny for to see Ladies possessed of riches, Riding up and down the town In Wellingtons and breeches. Now you with ancles short and thick,' Of every rank and station. Oh, won't you cut it fine and slick. By this new alteration. And landladies that creep about, Well known as twenty stoners, Come shove your bustles up the spout, And join the dashing bloomers. The bloomers dress the people say. Is getting all the go now. The pretty factory lasses they. Will cut a gallant show now. In petticoats above their knees, And breeches too you'll find them Nice jackets made of velveteen, All button'd up behind them. Now married men take my advice, vStep out and spend your riches, And buy your wives all in a trice, Short petticoats and breeches. For in the fashion she will hop. When e'er she's out of humour, I wonder if her tongue will stop, When she becomes a bloomer. Last night my wife she said to me, Tom, when we get the notes in, I'll have a pair of gaiters, and. Breeches made of goats skin, A pair of boots and silver spurs. For I have got such bad legs, I cannot hide I'll have to ride. The donkey now a strad-legs. The men must go out selling fish. And deal in shrimps and mussels, Dress'd up in ladies petticoats. Fine flounces and big bustles, You'll have no call to work at all, But walk out in your broaches. The ladies are determined, for. To drive the cabs and coaches. The tailors now must all be sharp In making noble stitches And be sure and clap their burning goose, Upon the ladies' breeches ; Their pretty little fingers will Be just as sore as mutton. Until that they have found the way Their trousers to unbutton. You factory lasses one and all Your dresses all reform now Buy a jacket and a trousers for To keep you snug and warm now ; Short petticoats and garters too No matter how the times goes A billycock and feather for To see which way tlie wind blows.
