(From the Gentleman's Magazine for September)
THE WORLD IN A HURRY:  OR, THE DANCE OF NATIONS.
The world's in a hurry----what is it about?
Or why, O ye monarchs! d'ye make such a rout?
Contend ye for int-rest, or humour, or pride?
No honour there can be at least on one side.
. . . [11 more verses, burdened with various forms of]
Russia, Hungary, Sweden, Saxe, Prussia, and France, 
Spain, England, Sardinia, all join in the dance!
