A Battle! A Battle! (Extended) - Front Matter
BATTLE! A BATTLE!
A Battle of Squirt,
Where no Man is kill’d
And no Man is hurt!
To the TUNE of three blue BEANS,
In a blue BLADDER;
RATTLE BLADDER, RATTLE!
To which is added,
The Quaker’s Address,
AND THE
SCHOOL-BOY’S ANSWER
to an insolent FELLOW
Who accus’d him of STEALING his CHERRIES.
Tuta frequensque Via est, per Amici fallere Nomen
Tula frequensqne licet sit Via, Crimen habet.
OVID.
‘Tis safe and common, in a Friend’s Disguise,
To mask Hypocrisy, Deceit and Lies;
As safe and common as the Thing might be,
The Poet thought it was rank Villany.
Sold by EDWARD MEREFIELD, at the Comer of Arch-Street,
and opposite the Church-Burying-Ground, in Philadelphia.
1764
