An emblem of their foul disgrace:
Folk songs
Oft in a house decay’d with age,
Which scarce will bear the winter’s rage;
Whose crazy outshots threat’ning hing
About their ears, a peal to ring;
They tumble in one common bed,
Where all are there promiscuous laid;
And ten to one, but as they fall,
They break their heads against the wall;
Nor do they mind to choose their wives,
With whom they’re bound to lead their lives;
But to the first they come do keep,
Year: 1850
