THE SHETLAND PICKLED HERRING AND ANCHOVY.
Quoth the last, to the first, with an insolent scoff,
Whence com'st thou, intruder?  march instantly off.
What! thou me supplant; who, from earliest days,
For enliv'ning a bumper have won ev'ry praise?
. . . [6 lines]
I add, for the latter, you're known to excel;
Yet in heightning a toast, surely I beat the bell!
. . . [4 more lines]
