The Diverting History of John Gilpin by William Cowper
Author:William Cowper [William Cowper]
Language: eng
Format: epub
Thus all through merry Islington
These gambols he did play,
Until he came unto the Wash
Of Edmonton so gay;
And there he threw the wash about
On both sides of the way,
Just like unto a trundling mop,
Or a wild goose at play.
At Edmonton his loving wife
From the balcony spied
Her tender husband, wondering much
To see how he did ride.
"Stop, stop, John Gilpin!âHere's the house!"
They all at once did cry;
"The dinner waits, and we are tired;"
Said Gilpinâ"So am I!"
But yet his horse was not a whit
Inclined to tarry there;
For why?âhis owner had a house
Full ten miles off, at Ware.
