Stroll on, thou dark not deep 'blue' dandy, stroll,
Ten thousand duns call after thee in vain.
Thy tailor's marked with ruin; his control
Stops with my shore; beyond he doth retain
No shadow of a chance of what's his own,
But sinks above his bills with bubbling groan,
'Absconded; gone abroad; address unknown.'
