  1. O'Keeffe, John [Author]

    Sir Gregory Gigg; or, the city beau. A Favourite Song, in The Son in Law. Sung by Mr. Mills, in the Character of Bouquet, at the Salisbury Theatre. Tune-Young Jockey stole my Heart away. This face observe, discerning fair; Observe each motion debonair; My Artois buckles when you view, In shining sable sattin shoe, You'll say that I'm from top to toe, A monstrous handsome City Beau. My humble whisky I despise; Like Phaeton, I mount the skies; And, as I drive away like mad, They all declare that I'm the Lad; And cry, he's sure, from top to toe, A monstrous handsome City Beau

  3. Tryon, Thomas [Author]

    England's grandeur, and way to get wealth: or, Promotion of trade made easy : and lands advanced; beneficial to particular persons, and to the kingdom in general; wherein many thousand of indigent poor families may be employed; breaches made in our trade by the French, Portuguese, Genoese, Swedes, Dutch and Danes, demonstrated.
