The Merry-Thought: or the Glass-Window and Bog-House Miscellany. Part 1

"The Merry-Thought: or the Glass-Window and Bog-House Miscellany. Part 1" by Hurlo Thrumbo, is a collection of funny poems and writings created anonymously during the 1700s. Pulled from writings on glass, often in bars and public spaces, the book shows life when people knew their place in society, but still made jokes about each other in poetry. There's lots of comedy, smart jokes, and loud stories about love, drinking, and hanging out with others. Each poem is like a funny look at people being silly, and how they acted back then. It's like a funny mirror of old-time jokes and how people enjoyed life together.
