First lines

Little Tom Jones Would often throw stones, And often he had a good warning; And now I will tell What Tommy befell, From his rudeness, one fine summer's morning.

He was taking the air Upon Trinity Square, And, as usual, large stones he was jerking; Till at length a hard cinder Went plump through a window Where a party of ladies were working.
