First Line: Jack, thou'rt a toper, let's have t'other quart

Subject(s): Hearts; Peace; Silence
JACK, thou'rt a toper, let's have t'other quart:
Ring, ring, we're so sober, 't were a shame to part.
None but a drunkard, bullied by his wife
For coming late, fears a domestic strife.
I'm free, and so are you to call and knock
Boldly, though watchmen cry 'Past Two o'clock.'
