A NEW NURSERY RHYME.
Reading edition
This is the Arcade that Grainger built. This is the Blade, whose only trade, is to keep the Arcade that Grainger built. These are the Boys who, making a noise, are kick'd by the blade, whose only trade is to keep the Arcade that Grainger built. This is the Horde of Attorneys, who, bored by the rascally boys, who, making a noise, are kick'd out by the blade, whose only trade is to keep the Arcade that Grainger built. This is the Hat, all cock'd and lac'd—a hat according to Briggs's taste—paid for by the horde of attorneys so bored by the rascally boys, who, making a noise, are kick'd out by the blade, whose only trade is to keep the Arcade that Grainger built. This is Peregrine, pragmatic and prim, who scouted the hat without any brim—the hat that was all cock'd and lac'd, according to Briggs' peculiar taste—paid for by the horde of attorneys so bored by the rascally boys, who, making a noise, are kick'd out by the blade, whose only trade is to keep the Arcade that Grainger built. This is Mister Briggs, who makes trowsers and coats, who abus'd the committee for giving their votes to Peregrine, so pragmatic and prim, to scout the hat without any brim; for Briggs deck'd the hat so cock'd and lac'd,—and he prides himself on his fanciful taste,—paid for by the horde of attorneys so bored by the rascally boys, who, making a noise, are kick'd out by the blade, whose only trade is to keep the Arcade that Grainger built. This is Chinaman Reed, who said Briggs was right, and who wears his unmentionables awfully tight, which were made by this Briggs, who makes trousers and coats, who abus'd the committee for giving their votes to Peregrine, so pragmatic and prim, to scout the hat without any brim; for Briggs deck'd the hat so cock'd and lac'd,—and he prides himself on his fanciful taste,—paid for by the horde of attorneys so bored by the rascally boys, who, making a noise, are kick'd out by the blade, whose only trade is to keep the Arcade that Grainger built. This is Mister Stable, who did all he was able to bully poor Reed, who said Briggs was right, and who wears his unmentionables awfully tight, which were made by this Briggs, who makes trousers and coats, who abus'd the committee for giving their votes to Peregrine, so pragmatic and prim, to scout the hat without any brim; for Briggs deck'd the hat so cock'd and lac'd,—and he prides himself on his fanciful taste,—paid for by the horde of attorneys so bored by the rascally boys, who, making a noise, are kick'd out by the blade, whose only trade is to keep the Arcade that Grainger built. This is Mister Seymour, an attorney of note, who—alas! for the hat—gave the casting vote, and agreed with Stable, who did all he was able to bully poor Reed, who said Briggs was right, and who wears his unmentionables awfully tight, which were made by this Briggs, who makes trousers and coats, who abus'd the committee for giving their votes to Peregrine, so pragmatic and prim, who scouted the hat without any brim—the unfortunate hat, all cock'd and lac'd, after Briggs's own peculiar taste—paid for by the horde of attorneys so bored by the noise of the rascally boys, kick'd out by the blade, whose only trade is to keep the Arcade that Grainger built.
