Classic Poem

Good hostess, lay a crab in the fire and broil a mess of souse a:
That we may toss the bowl to and fro, I drinks them all carouse a.
And I will pledge Tom Tosspot 'till I be drunk as a mouse a:
Whoso will drink to me all day, I will pledge them all carouse a.
Then we will not spare for any cost, so long as we be in house a:
Then, hostess, fill the pot again, for I pledge them all carouse a.
