INCOME FROM GO-OUT by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: A FELLOW WITH A GOUTY FOOT
Last Line: FOR IT ASS-WAGED HIS PAIN.
Subject(s): GOUT;

A fellow with a gouty foot
Was on a restless donkey put,
At which he swore in vain;
But soon he hired the donkey out,
And what he got relieved the gout,
For it ass-waged his pain.
