 rinding matters grow serious, kept his eye on Jack Eaven 

 But the old Eaven croaked when his horse was near done.

In this state of distress my Lord Maddock saw, 

 Who just in his nag had discovered a flaw ; 

 Together they joined, and took leave of the pack ; 

 Maddock trudged home, but the peer got a hack.

 And to those who were near must have proved a great

Derry Down. 



Of a mighty great king, how it lowered his pride 

 To be walking on foot when his subjects did ride ; 

 Though they passed by in numbers to no one he spoke. 

 But like Charley the Second got up in the oak.
