Song.
from the north to the south pole , it ' s width beexprest , It ' s length full extending between east and west , To make it immortal , they gave it a name , " " And call'd it the SHAKESPEAR * to Warwickshire's fame , CHORUS . . And thtis-build we o ' er earth arid sea , With beauty and true symmetry ,
Such sacred piles to Masonry . In Jehosophat ' s vale the foundation was laid , By our Royal Grand Master , the Prince of the trade , And to keep up in concord a grand jubilee , Ordain'd it a Lodge " of Freemasons should be . CHORUS .
Ye sons born free , with me agree , The King and Craft , let our toast be , And toast him round , with three-times-three ; May Heaven's grand architect bless the design , And health , peace and concord , it ' s members conjoin , May they flourish in harmony , friendshipand love
, , 'Till they're summon'd to join in the grand Lodge above , CHORUS . And so build we o ' er earth and sea , Such sacred piles to Masonry , - * Through time to all eternity .
To Delia's Kitten.
TO DELIA ' S KITTEN .
BEING THE FIRST ATTEMPT OF A YOUNG GENTLEMAN , XJLAIL I favour'd of the tabby race , Whose form ' s replete with ev'ry grace , To praise thee who'd refuse i E'en I , tho' you my rival be ,
This humble tribute pay to thee ; Inspired by thy mews I In gentle pity turn your ej'e , Behold your prostrate suppliant sigh , ; Oh ! deign to intercede With her , for whom I'd gladly part With Worlds , if she'd extract the dart
That caus'd my breast to bleed . Say , are you friendly in my cause 1 Or will you wield terrific claws , Your beauteous frame distort ? With fiery passion's baneful rage ? ( Unworthy so demure a sage ) Or make my pain your sport i W . D . Gi Y
