HUNTING SONGS 



VI 



Again ere I end, all who foxes befriend, 

 Let a bumper thrice honour'd delight 'em. 

 May the forward and fast still be up at the last. 

 Give the slow ones another Qussitum ; 



Fill, fill the QucBsitum ! 



To good fellows all a Quxsitum ! 

 Let him fast be or slow, each shall prove ere we go. 

 An excuse for another Quxsitum. 



A " "Burst " in the Ball Week 



JANUARY 19, i860 



WE had danc'd the night through. 

 Till the candles burnt blue, 

 But were all in the saddle next morn ; 

 Once again with Tom Ranee, 

 In broad daylight to dance 



To the music of hollo and horn. 



II 



We were all giddy still 

 With the waltz and quadrille. 



When arous'd by the loud " Tally-ho ! " 

 I must tune my fast rhyme 

 Up to double-quick time. 



For the movement was prestissimo.
