BUONAPARTE'S WEDDING,


HAVE you heard the news?
Boney wants a baby;
Austria can't refuſe,
Whate'er his wishes may be
For his iron crown,
All the girls coquet it,
And gladly wou'd lay dwn
Their pretty lives to get it,

Toora loo ra loo, too ra loo ra laddy,
Toora loo ra la, too ra loo ra laddy.

Soon as it was known,
Continental Misses,
Anxious for a throne,
Began to practise kisses;
Every ſpinſter wish'd,
The work she may go thro' it;
While Joſephine, quite dish'd,
Cried, he'll never do it!

Boney isn't nice;
At nought this hero winces;
Francis in a trice,
He'll get a brace of Princes:
