XXVIII.

PIPPEN HILL.

As I went up Pippen Hill
(Pippen Hill was dirty),
There I met a pretty Miss,
And she dropt me a curt'sy.

Little Miss, pretty Miss,
Blessings light upon you!
If I had half a crown in purse,
I'd spend it all upon you.

COLLIS PIPPENUS.

CLIVE PIPPENO ut spatiabar

(Luto madebat cum illic vagabar)
Puellae occurrebam et quod minime rere,
Genu soluto me jubet salvere.

Puellarum quot sunt O virgo tam bella,
Sis felicissima O virgo tenella !
Et auro et argento si non vacarem
Multa et pulchra tibi donarem.

BRYAN O'LYNN.

BRYAN O'LYNN per pontem trementem
Traducit uxorem suam matrem tenentem;
Sed ponte delapso in aquam merguntur,
Nam Bryan cadentem matronae sequuntur,
Qui mersus in undis exclamat furore
"Daemon me capiat cum socru et uxore!"

BRYAN O'LYNN'S BREECHES.

BRYAN O'LYNN had no breeches to wear,

So he bought him a sheepskin to make him a pair; "With the woolly side out, and the other side in, Faith, they're cool and convanient," said Bryan O'Lynn.

BRACCAE BRYAN O'LYNN.

BRYAN O' LYNN nullas braccas habebat
Sic pellem ovillam is sibi emebat
Up faceret braccas, et illis perfectis
Laneis extrinsecus, et cruribus tectis,
Opus finitum Bryan magne placebat ;
"En aptas! decentes!" persaepe dicebat.

CARMINA VARIA.

COUGHING in a shady grove

Sat my Juliana; Lozenges I gave my love,

Ipecacuanha;

From the box the imprudent maid Threescore of them did pick;

Then sighing tenderly she said, "My Damon, I am sick."

JULIANA.

TUSSIENS in nemore

Sedebat Juliana;
Trochos ægrae praebui
(Ipecacuanha);
Ter decem e pyxide

Inscia depromebat,
Statim cum suspirio

Omnes evomebat.
