His new Method of restoring Old Pictures to their original Beauty, on the above Terms. Sixty-Three with bare Sixteen, Sure such Sighs were never seen; Now a Little Fairy dance it, Five and Forty Inches high; Then a Patagonian prance it, Cutting Capers to the Sky. Next advance Sir Chalkstone Hobble, Footing it with Lady Quick; But the Knight began to squabble, Spurn and mutter, prance and kick. N. B. The Humours of the Camps may be had at One Guinea, 10s. 6d. and 6s. the Set, in Portland-Road, Portland-Place, Door for Carriages in Norton-Street. Mr. A shall be ready to attend his Pupils when the Parliament meets, with his new-invented Hair-Pencils, properly prepaired, made of Fox Tails, called the Brush of Life [electronic resource].
