Fish, from Dunbar’s rocky shore, Stood the president before, If my mem’ry do not fail, Sent by noble L——le. In the centre, soup was seen Smoking, from a vase of snow. Beef, at bottom, fat and lean,— Beef of Indian Buffalo. This was sent by T——le’s peer To augment the sportsman’s cheer; T——le, sprung from mighty H—y, Foremost in the border day. Tarts and pastry sent, I ween, By the lady De G——ne.
