Every morning when he went by. Whether the weather was wet or dry, And right opposite her door hed stand, And cry dogs meat, did this dogs-meat man. Then her cat would run out to the dogs-meat man, And rub against the barrow of the dogs-meat man, As right opposite to her door hed stand, And cry Dogs Meat, did this dogs-meat man. One morn she kept him at the door. Talking half-an-hour or more ; For, you must know, that was her plan. To have a good look at the dogs-meat man. Times are hard, says the dogs-meat man ; Folks get in my debt, says the dogs-meat man ; Then he took up his barrow, and away he ran, And cried Dogs Meat, did this dogs-meat man. 105 2 £ GALLERY OF COMICALITIES.—No.
