[Tom Jolly's Nose.]

A. 3. Voc.

[ 17] 〈♫〉〈♫〉 TOm Jol╌ly's Nose I mean to a╌buse, thy jol╌ly Nose Tom provokes my Muse; thy 〈♫〉〈♫〉 Nose jol╌ly Tom that shines so bright, I'le ea╌si╌ly fol╌low it by its own light: Thy Nose Tom 〈♫〉〈♫〉 Jol╌ly no Jest it will bear, although it yields Matter enough, and to spare; but jol╌ly Tom's 〈♫〉〈♫〉 Nose, for all he can do, breeds Worms in it self, and in our Heads too. Tom's Nose, jol╌ly Tom's Nose, the 〈♫〉〈♫〉 more it is banter'd, the more it glows: Then drink to Tom Jol╌ly a cooling Glass, or jol╌ly Tom's 〈♫〉〈♫〉 Nose will fire his Face.
