In fact, alto - ge-ther pea-soup- co - lour'd weather;-Shop win-dows all

shutter'd, The pavement all butter'd, police - men pa - ra-ded, The street bar-ri-ca - ded, d tempo.

And a peel from the stee-ple of Bow- o- o! Low wo-men in pat-tens, High

ladies in satins, And cousin suburbans in flame-colour'd turbans; Quite up to the at-tics,

inviting rheu-matics; A great mob col-lecting with-out much selecting, And

Pomposo.

some, it's a pity, are free of the City,

As your pockets may happen to know.

[PATTER.]-Now, John, put up the shutters, lock the door, and clean the glass over it; the three Master Bells are coming to look through the fanlight.-(Maid curtseying.)

It's 'cause they give such lots of whacks!-There goes the City Marshal !-Him !-lawk! I took him for the Duke of Wel lington! (A medley of music.)

Let 'em alone-it's like the weather-won't hold up-(Child.) A tin man! a tin man! a tin man'Hush, you little fool-it's a man in armorial bearings !—(Lady.)

On the 9th of November he has to vacate the chair. -Poor dear Man I—it must be a painful thing, sir, to be obliged to part with his seat of honour !—Oh, vary, vary.

How well I remember the ninth of November!
The fine Lady May'ress an ostrich's heiress,
In best bib and tucker, and dignified pucker;
The learned Recorder, in Old Bailey order;
The Sheriffs together, with their hanging weather,
And their heads like John Anderson's pow-o-0;

Such hustle and bustle, &c.

The Aldermen courtly, and looking red portly;
And buckler and bargemen, with other great large

men;

With streamers and banners held up in odd manners;
A mob running arter, to see it by vater;
And the wharfs popping off as they go.

[PATTER.]-There she is what a beautiful plume! and what a lovely stomacher !-Now, Mr. Dangle, what do you think of our Mayoress ?-May I speak my sentiments ?-O, certainly!-Why, then, I think she has borrowed half the silks of Cheapside, and all the feathers of the Poultry -You are so severe!-Pray, sir, would you be so good as inform me what are those gentlemen with fur gowns on, like judges --Ah, they're no judges!-I mean those with white wands, like conjurors.-Ah, they're no conjurors-they're the Common Counc-Now, Bill, shout out! Huzzay, huzzay 1-Bless me, what makes the Sheriffs so poppolar?-It arn't them-it's the charrots-they were built at our master's.-Keep off the wheels there!-Pray, which are the Sheriffs!-Those in scat 'et, ma'am, with collars of A double S: all the great city posts have chains to 'em.-Here he comes! now, Barney, be ready with your goose !(Hisses and groans.) Hold your noise, ye young thaves o' the world, and born blackguards-I wish I was the mother on ye !-Vy, ve arn't a hissing at you, Judy: it's the Recorder he had us vipp'd last sessions) - There goes Alderman Gobble!-No, it ain't—it's Judge Cross, and there ain't ever a big wig as 'll eat and drink with bigger wigger !— Come, move on, move on!-Gee-up, Patten-makers !-Go along, Girdlers,-you'll be too late for dinner!-Shove along, Jack-did you see him take water!-(Woman.) Take water! what, with nothing in it -No, you fool, with boats and bridges and barges, and every thing in it!-(Bowing citizen.) Superb piece of pageantry? gorgeous spectacle! (Pomposo.) O, vary, vary-great magnificence-great opulence great corpulence-great greatness !—Miss Maggs, my love, I hope you have been gratified?-O, so much !—interesting sight-august ceremony-imposing effect extremely obliged-so very comfortable-whitscht! (sneezing)-Not quite open weather enough for open windows! (more sneezing)—Colds are catching, ma'am !-Then I wish they'd catch my turban, for I've just sneezed it out of window ! Such hustle and bustle, &c.,

O, MARK YON LITTLE BOUNDING BARK.

Arranged expressly for this work, to a melody by Spohr.

Moderato. 6

mark yon lit-tle bounding bark That skims along the main! Ye roar-ing

winds, be mer-ci-ful-Re- turn it safe again; And blow, ye breezes, gently blow, And

waft it near the shore: For one young heart would break with woe, should it re-turn no more!

A fair one stands at her lattice high,

And she sees it come in sight;

Her heart beats as it ventures nigh,

And she watches with delight.

Her lover's in yon little bark,

That rises with the foam;

Then gently blow, ye verdantį ales,
And waft the sailor home.
