THE Wheel-Wrights Huy-and-Cry After his WIFE, who went away with a Cooper, who is now turn'd Trooper, Who Lived in DRURY-LANE. Tune, Let Cesar live long, Or the Female Drummer .
|
HOw sad is my Fate how unhappy my Life,
|
To be Cuckcold and Plagu'd by a Turbulent Wife;
|
In an Amorous heat with a Cooper she's gone,
|
Who will hoop her Tubb stoutly before he has done:
|
There's no better Collation in both their Opinions,
|
Then burn'd Clarret and Coneys well smother'd with Oinions
|
2.
|
I'm a Man every Inch and a Wheel-wright by Trade,
|
By a Coopers assistance now a Cockcold am made:
|
Now he has her, I hope he will carefully hoop her,
|
For I'le warn't him, her lake-hole finds work for the Cooper.
|
There's no better Collation in both their Opinions,
|
Then burn'd Clarret and Coneys well smother'd with Oinions.
|
3.
|
I'le reward in a short time the Coopers desert,
|
He knows I can soon put a spoke in his Cart;
|
If I ever should meet him, I'le belabour his Jerkin,
|
Thus without my Consent, for hooping my Wifes Ferkin:
|
I'le make them repent and soon change their Opinions,
|
Of their Clarret and Coneys well smother'd with Oinions.
|
4.
|
My Wife tho' she's gone, I'le this Character give her,
|
I'le war'nt her, she tyrs both his Adge and his Driver;
|
She's a frail mortal Cask that will always want hooping,
|
And her damn'd lacky-tap-hole each moment wants stopping:
|
They'l Repent of their folly and change their Opinions,
|
Of their Clarret and Coneys well smother'd with Oinions.
|

|
When Quarrels arise 'twixt my Neighbours and I ,
|
Dip your Horns in burnt Clarret they presently cry;
|
Then another he comes and drops out with his Jeer,
|
Methinks Coneys and Oinions are delicate cheer:
|
Then they'l sing out the Chorus in all our Opinions,
|
Burnt Clarret's good Sawce for S tew'd Rabbets and Oinions
|
6.
|
How unhoppy was I thus to wed with a Jade,
|
Who the joys of my Bed to another betray'd;
|
It's but just a reward should to Cuckcolds be given,
|
We have right by our Horns to the pleasures of Heaven:
|
Which is better by far in us Cuckcolds Opinions,
|
Than burnt Clarret and Coneys well smother'd with Oinions
|
7.
|
To the weight of my Horns I am forced to stoop,
|
I am now made a Cuckcold as round as a hoop;
|
He is stupid who for his Wifes fault ever Mourns,
|
My head shall on Wheels run and not on my horns:
|
Let them hoop and be damn'd with both their Opinions,
|
Of burnt Clarret and Coneys well smother'd with Oinions
|
8.
|
This Leacherous Cooper some Satyre hath got him,
|
He'l leave no Tubb standing upon its own bottom;
|
I am sure he will quickly be tyr'd with his Love,
|
He will soon find her Ferkin will bottomless prove:
|
They'l repent soon their folly and change their Opinions,
|
There's so much for Clarret stew'd Coneys and Oinions.
