As you value your pence  24 
Upheld in air, the gaudy kite  25   
With garlands here the May-Pole crown'd  36   
Knuckle down to your Taw  27   
Go hide out, and hoop  28 
Here hand in hand the boys unite  29   
Artful angler baits his hook, The  30   
Bereft of all light  31 
Shuttle-cock struck, The  32 
Ambition here fires every heart  33   
Soon as the ring is once compos'd  34   
Strike out your man strong  35   
Hop short and step false  36 
After a sultry summer's day  37   
Lads and lasses here are seen, The  38   
Poise your hand fairly  39   
This lesson observe  40   
Ball once struck with art and care, The  41   
When the sun's beams have warm'd the air  42   
Ball once struck off, The  43   
Touch lightly the trap  44 
Gamester here his art displays, The  45   
With what great force the little ball  46   
This stoops down his head  47 
Here two naughty boys  48   
Serjeant hero here appears, The  49   
Here various boys stand round, and soon  50   
O'er this hat, and that  51 
Tho' some birds, too heedless  52 
First make with chalk an oblong square  53   
This well-invented game's design'd  54   
In quest of his game  55 
Great A, B, and C  56   
Great E, F, and G  57   
Here's great H, and I  58   
Here's great K, and L  59   
Here's great M, and N  60   
So great O, and P  61   
Here's great Q, and R  62   
So S, T, and U  63   
Here's great W, X  64   
There's great Y, and Z  65   
As the goat went to brouze  66-67   
Stork, thro' misfortune  68-69   
Wanton young shepherd, A  70-71   
Woodman at work, A  72-73 
Bloom of youth upon his cheek is seen, The  80-81   
In silken garb array'd of celestial green  82-83   
Autumn succeed, in flaming yellow clad  84-85   
Winter was last in woolly robes array'd  86-87   
'Tis I who measure vital space  88-89
