G^^^ WAS noon, in fact Old Tom' had just rung out '^CVv The mid-day hour. The crowd that 4j^'^^?c£Jfi hunof about The doors of that once famous hostelrie, When 'neath the fostering sway of the Dupree, ^ Had almost gaped and gazed their utmost fill, Yet linger'd there, and gaped and wonder'd still ; ' Old Tom, not the Old Tom of London Gin notoriety, but the veritable Tom of Christ Church, Oxford. * The famous landlady of the " Star" in the olden time. The Queen of landladies. THE SHERIFF. 17 As... when in passing some secluded square, I've seen a crowd of ragged urchins stare With all attention and uplifted gaze At a small theatre, covered with green baize. Where Punch performs, with most discordant squeak. His merry antics ; now on gibbet's peak Hanging (the rogue) the constable on high ; Now whopping Judy, whose most piteous cry Rings through the square and stops the passers by — So did the crowd expectingly surround, Jostling with push and thrust and oaths profound, Gathering from every part, both near and far, The gate of Oxford's fast declining " Star.
