Such a getting Diantre! comme on Come si ha salito--
up-stairs! monte l'escalier! e maraviglioso!
Jump, Jim Crow. Sautez, Monsiuer Salti, pergrazia,
Jaques Corbeau! Signor Giamomo

It would not be fair to rob the Signor of any more of his labour. It will
be seen that, on the principle of the Painter and his Cow, we have

THE OMNIBUS
The horrors of an omnibus,
Indeed, I've cause to curse;
And if I ride in one again,

If you a journey have to go,
And they make no delay,
'Tis ten to one you're serv'd like _curds_,
They _spill you on the_ WHEY.
