 | The three tours of Doctor Syntax |  |
Now all beneath a spreading tree They chat, and sip their ev'ning tea,
Where Syntax told his various fate, His studious life and married state;
And that he hop'd his Tour would tend
His comforts and his purse to mend.
At length they to the house retreated,
And round the supper soon were seated;
When the time quickly pass'd away,
And gay good humour clos'd the day.
