Our friends, the Turks, who with loud "Allahs" now

Began to signalise the Russ retreat,[400]Were damnably mistaken; few are slow

In thinking that their enemy is beat,[401](Or beaten, if you insist on grammar, though

I never think about it in a heat,)

But here I say the Turks were much mistaken,

Who hating hogs, yet wished to save their bacon.
