A Tory, a Whig, and a Moderate Man,
            O'er a Tub of strong Ale
            Met, in Ailesbury Vale,
Where there liv'd a plump Lass they call'd buxom Nan:
    The Tory a Londoner proud and high,
    The Whig was a Tradesman plaguy sly;
    The Trimmer a Farmer, but merry and dry,
      And thus they their Suit began:
  Pretty Nancy we're come to put in our Claim,
  Resolv'd upon Wedlocks pleasing Game;
        Here's Jacob the Big,
        And William the Whig,
        And Roger the Grigg,
