Upon a Gentleman fitting upon a Cremona Fiddle.

Where the Poor fill their Bellies, the Rich receive Ho
great and fo good is the Lord of the Manour.
Sing Down, Down, Hey Derry Down.
Ye Nymphs and ye Swains, that inhabit the Place, Give ear to my Song, of a Fiddle's hard Cafe; For it is of a Fiddle, a fweet Fiddle 1 fing;
A fofter and fweeter did never wear String. Sing Down, &c.
A fine Seat of Lord Weymouth's.
