Nabman

Old Donton has sent the nabman after him at last.

As Nabman Dick was looking o'er a string Of body writs, and forms of fieri facias, With eye of hawk, so sharp and wary, He notic'd Fr—d, Though not in red, Stop at the house of Mrs. C-—y;

But debts, though borish, must be paid, And bailiffs a'n't bamm'd for many hours. Ah ! that the nabman's evil eyes Should ever come hither Such cheeks to wither !

His R–H must take good care, or that bit of blood will be seized while standing at the door of the Circe, as his carriage was the other day, by the unceremonious nabman.

With one man always ashore on a month's relief, the select little company of four Nabmen are the chosen few of all Trinity House lightkeepers.
