Epigram on______________beautifying the Back Front of his house facing the River Thames ___ Supposed to be Written by a Waterman.

                                  _______

On Silver Thames long time I've row'd

  Full twenty years or thirty

While Britains Earl his backside show'd

  Brown, slovenly, and dirty-

But 'tother day surprised I cry'd

    to white so clean it made is

This cannot be my Lords backside

    It sure must be my ladys  [flourish]

Epigram on a swindling musician, but a good Harpsichord player- by Mr: Tolfray ~

                 _______

His time was short his touch was neat

 Our Gold he freely finger'd

Alert alike with Hands and feet His movements have not linger'd But where's the wonder of the Case

  A moments thought detects it

His practice has been Thorough-base

  A chord will be his exit

But while we blame his hasty flight

   Our censure may be rash

A Travelr [cursive r with 2 dots under it (traveler) ] is surely right

  To change his Notes for Cash.  [flourish]
