O, P eggy, Peggy, when thou go'st to brew;
Consider well what you're about to do;
Be very wise--very sedately think
That what you' re going to make is-drink!
Consider who must drink t hat drink, and then
'i'ilbat 'tis to have the praise of honest men;
The future ages shall of Peggy tell,
Tho nymph who spiced the beverages so well.
