A Bone for School Masters to Pick.
One evening I chanc’d with a Tinker to sit,
Whose tongue ran a great deel too fast for his
-----wit;
He talked of his art with abundance of mettle;
So I ask’d him to make a flat bottom’d kettle:
Let the top and bottom diameters be,
Is just such proportion as five is to three;
Twelve inches the depth I propos’d & no more;
And to hold in ale gallons seven less than a score.
He promis’d to do it, and strait to work went;
But when he had done it he found it too scant.
He alter’d it then, but too big he had made it;
But though it held right the diameters fail’d it;
