 | Reuben and Other Poems |  |
He knew their modes and manners just as well
As any of the quality could tell;
He knew the cut of collar, coat or vest,
And came to dinner in the very best;
So that, to judge of them by their attire,
You could not tell the footman from the squire.
As any of the quality could tell;
He knew the cut of collar, coat or vest,
And came to dinner in the very best;
So that, to judge of them by their attire,
You could not tell the footman from the squire.
