. [Advertisement.] POOR JACK on SOURBELLY, Dick Deadeyb's Mate. Ancanies, yclept Bourbelly, the mean yahoo, A cur and a tarry tar, Who was always dressed in navy blu<>, When on board a man-of-war. One fault be had on sea or land, He was a thirsty dog,. For Sourbelly never could withstand A glass or so of grog. He never liked to go to sea, For when on shire the rover, IF not as tight as he could be, Was always " half seas over." Dick Deadeye, who was apt to scoff With jokes most aptly timed, Said Sourbelly might any time go off, 'Cause he was always " primed," Soorbclly hadn't a feeing heart, And was never seen to cry, Yet tears were always on the start, 11 The drop was in his eye." At fighting Sourbelly was shy, A niost undoubted merit; Hi» Dutch courage never foiled, and why ? He was so full of " spirit." When he got full he closed his eye, But that gave biinno trouble, For Sourbelly had no cause to sigh, He was always " seeing double " One night he filled a pail with grog, Determined be would suck it; He drained it dry, the thirsty dog, Hiccuppect; and "kicked tie bucket."
