[No flagon, tankard, bottle, or iug]
No flagon, tankard, bottle, or iug,
Is half so fit, or so well can hold tug;
For when a man and his wife play at thwacks,
There is nothing so good as a pair of Black Iacks:
Thus to it they go, they swear, and they curse,
It makes them both better, the Iack's ne'er the worse;
For they might have banged both, till their hearts did ake,
And yet no hurt the Iacks could take:
And I wish his heirs may have a pension,
That first produced that lucky invention.
