[1]Young Master Pig you here may see
Upon his tender Mother’s knee
No longer he with patience sucks
For See, he’s cutting both his tusks.

[3]Behold him now in Go Cart safely tied
His pretty feet go trotting side by side
Old Granny smiles and grunting seems to say
“Ce petit prodige c’est moi qui l’ai fait.”

[5]To Master Goat next Pig is sent
Whose learning is most excellent
But all his pains can’t make this block
Say A. B. C. or “hic, hac, hoc.”

[7]Our Piggy next an Oxford fop
With Cravat large and Brutus Top
And when young Stag his coat has slipt on
He’ll strut away like any Skipton.

[9]For Hunting now he takes his Cue
But other Game soon comes in View
Miss Crane he spies! he feels the fire
And falls in Love as into mire.

The wondering Piggy takes his Bow
