ANACREONTICS.
The Celts that meet about the Park so notedly irascible
So prominent in everything that's make-a-man-jack-ass-able,
Could not have made more noise than we and scarce have been more riotous;
We got a going such a pace no mortal man could quiet us;
For one rose up and speechified and one sat down and sang,
Another laughed the while he quaffed until the old roof rang,
And one was quoting Addison, and one was quoting Rabelais,
And one declaring Locksley Hall was by no means a shabby lay
