[I askd my Dear Friend Orator Prigg]
I askd my Dear Friend Orator Prigg
Whats the first part of Oratory he said a great wig
And what is the second then dancing a jig
And bowing profoundly he said a great wig
And what is the third then he snord like a pig
And puffing his cheeks he replied a Great wig
Whats the first part of Oratory he said a great wig
And what is the second then dancing a jig
507
And what is the third then he snord like a pig
And puffing his cheeks he replied a Great wig
So if a Great Painter with Questions you push
Whats the first Part of Painting hell say a Paint Brush
And what is the second with modest blush
Hell smile like a Cherub & say a paint Brush
And what is the third hell bow like a rush
With a lear in his Eye hell reply a Paint Brush
Whats the first Part of Painting hell say a Paint Brush
And what is the second with modest blush
Hell smile like a Cherub & say a paint Brush
And what is the third hell bow like a rush
With a lear in his Eye hell reply a Paint Brush
Perhaps this is all a Painter can want
But look yonder that house is the house of Rembrant
But look yonder that house is the house of Rembrant
