Excerpt from Comic Annual And truly, of all bowers that ever bowed, in cluding Lord Chesterfield, the Royal inventor of the Prince's how, the booing Sir Archy Macsycophant, Tom Moore, and his Bowers of Bendermeer, all the'admirals of blue, white, and red, with their larboard bows, and starboard bows, all the bow-loving schoolmasters with their Where's your bow and finally, Macdufi' and his whole army, who boughed out Macbeth - of all these, no man ever scraped his foot without a scraper, or bent so agreeably to his own bent, as your very humble obedient servant. To be candid I am in the humour to bow - age com mands respect - to an old post. 'tis better than bowing to a post obit.
