At snuff no Cornish sailorman would sneeze
That horders of crooks felt they'd more right to own
Replies like this the dumbstruck brain may tease
And loudly sang off-key without a tone
Oh how oh how he hates such pilferings
When flame a form to wrath ancestral gave
Th'outrageous Thames a troubled arrow slings
The nicest kids for strickiest toffees crave
The genealogist with field and fess
A piercint wit would sprightliest horses flog
From cool Parnassus down to wild Loch Ness
But I can understand you Brogher Gog
Do bank clerks rule their abacus by thumb
In cognac brandy is Bacardi rum?
