Text Appearing Before Image:
ed, somehow or other,And somehow set aside your brother,Who, een unsafe in his own skin,Forced to jump out,—why you jump in!All your c attentions are so striking,At once they catch the royal liking. 26 HINTS TO SERVANTS. Your Master feigns a deep regret,Well knowing what himself shall get:You (bless your stars for such a barter)Are bought and paid for with—the Garter !And having got just what you wishd for,No secret make of what you JisJid for.Fortune can go but one step higher,Youre made a Page, and dubbd Esquire;And then youll turn upon your heel,Prouder than Wellington or Peel,Since you yourself can hardly knowHow far your influence may go.And now your almost only care,Amidst the all-attractive glare,Is to ward off all applicationsFrom seedy friends and poor relations;While youve no end of fun and sportWhen clumsy people come to Court.The King will do whateer you crave him,If youll but just agree to shave him;Which you most certainly will doMore ways than one, and closely too !
Text Appearing After Image:
27 THE WAITING-WOMAN. I pity you with all my heart!Your ladies play so mean a part,As now-a-days old clothes to barterFor china, trinkets, scented water,Or use them up for chairs and screens,Lessning an honest servants means;Besides yet shabbier plans than these,The prevalence of locks and keys !Making you live, all hugger-mugger,On bohea slops and coarse brown sugar.Theres yet another plaguy way,With ladies of the present day,Of lessening your hilarity—By i giving way to charity !To make it up theres ways for certain,—Not that Id peep behind the curtain. 28 HINTS TO SERVANTS. Perchance your Lord, if in his hey-day,May like you better than his Lady,Though shes an angel,—vastly stupid!But thats a freak of Master Cupid,(To whom, of course, you constant pray,And offer vows both night and day).He makes too free in hapless hour,And from that moments in your power.To keep your countenance endeavour,Lift up your hands, cry Well, I never !In all my life knew such assurance ;This cruelty
