    Here's to the maiden of bashful fifteen;
    Here's to the widow of fifty;
    Here's to the flaunting, extravagant quean;
    And here's to the housewife that's thrifty.
    (Chorus:) Let the toast pass,--
    Drink to the lass,
    I'll warrant she'll prove an excuse for the glass.

I fill this cup to one made up

To whom the better elements
And kindly stars have given
A form so fair that, like the air,
'Tis less of earth than heaven.

And let the kettle to the trumpet speak,
The trumpet to the cannoneer without,
The cannons to the heavens, the heaven to earth,
'Now the king drinks to Hamlet.'
