The marble tomb gapes wide with jangling keys
His exaltation shocked both youth and crone
Old corned-beef's rusty armour spreads disease
'Ere meanings new to ancient tribes are thrown
The frisian Isles my friends are cherised things
Were pots graffiti'd over by a slave
A daring baron pockets precious Mings
Thou homestead hillside woodland rock and cave
The wolf devours both sheep and shepherdess
What things we did we went the whole darned hog
The colonel's still escutcheoned in undress
Lobsters for sale must be our apologue
Ventriloquists be blowed you strike me dumb
yet from the City's pie pulled not one plum
