Please to walk in, Ladies and Gentlemen--it's well worth seeing! here are the most wonderful of all wonderful Living Animals. 'Jake care! Don't go within their reach-they mind nobody but me! A short time ago they got loose, and, with some other vermin that came from their holes and corners, desperately attacked a Lady of Quality; but, as luck would have it, I, and my (four and twenty men,' happened to come in at the very moment;--we 'pull'd' away, and prevented'em from doing her a serious mischief. Though they look tame, their vicious dispositions are unchanged. If any thing was to happen to me, they'd soon break out again, and shew their natural ferocity, i'm in continual danger from'em myself--for if I didn't watch'em closely they'd destroy me. As the clown says, 'there never was such times,'--so there's no telling what tricks they may play yet. Ladies and Gentlemen,--these animals have been exhibited at Court, before the King, and all the Royal Family! Indeed His Majesty is so fond of'em that he often sees'em in private, and feeds'em; and he is so diverted by'em that he has been pleased to express his gracious approbation of all their motions. But they're as cunning as the old one himself! Bless you, he does not know a thousandth part of their tricks. You, Ladies and Gentlemen, may see'em just as they are!--the Beasts and Reptiles--all alive! alive O! and the Big Boo by--all a-light! a-light O! Walk in, Ladies and Gentlemen! walk in! just a-going to begin.--Stir'em up! Stir'em up there with the long pole! Before I describe the Animals, please to look at the Show-Cloth opposite: The Curiosities have labels under them, which the company can read.
