Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 108, April 20, 1895

The New Governess. What are the Comparative and Superlative of Bad , Berty?
Berty ( the Doctor's son ). Bad—Worse—Dead!
( For the next Ten Years. )
Or, The British Laundress's Lament.
In matters of laundry the fault of them Dutch,
Is charging too little, and grabbing too much!
They'd collar our collars, cut off with our shirts!
The heart of a true washerwoman it hurts
To think of Frows taking our time-honoured tub.
What, travel to Holland to get rub and scrub,
While soap and strong arms may in Britain be found?
