XXVII.
[The following nursery song alludes to William III. and George Prince of Denmark. ]
WILLIAM and Mary, George and Anne,
Four such children had never a man:
They put their father to flight and shame,
And called their brother a shocking bad name.

AXVIIL.
DOcTOR SACHEVEREL
Did very well,

But Jacky Dawbin
Gave him a warning.

XXIX.
[A song on King William III.]

As I walked by myself,
And talked to myself,

Myself said unto me,
Look to thyself,
Take care of thyself,

For nobody cares for thee.

I answered myself,
And said to myself,
In the self-same repartee,
Look to thyself,
Or not look to thyself,
The selfsame thing will be.
