THE

MAN ABOUT TOWN.

BY

CORNELIUS WEBBE,

AUTHOR OF "GLANCES AT LIF B," ETC.

"Your counsel,' quoth Panurge, 'under your correction and favour, seemeth
anto me not unlike to the song of Gammer Yea-by-Nay. It is full of sarcasms,
mockqueries, bitter taunts, nipping bobs, derisive quips, biting jerks, and con-
tradictory iterations, the one part destroying the other."-RABELAIS.

"I, too, am in love with this green Earth-the face of Town and country-
the unspeakable rural Solitudes, and the sweet security of Streets."

IN TWO VOLUMES.
