'Tis too late for a Coach, and too soon to reel home, We have freedom to stagger when the Town is our own; Let's whirl it away, and whip Sixpences round, Till the Drawers are foundered, and the Hogshead does sound: The Glass stays with you, Tom, save your Tide, pull away, One minute of Midnight is worth a whole Day.
