Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 93, August 13, 1887

Surrey versus Notts. August 1st, 2nd, and 3rd 1887.
( By One of the Fifty Thousand. )
Enthusiastic Surreyite loquitur :—
Hooray! Oh, you must let me holloa. I'm one of the famed Surrey Crowd,
And a roar for a win such as this is, can not be too long or too loud.
Won by four wickets! As good as though Walter had scored half a million,
Great Scott! what a rush from the ring! what a crowd round the crowded Pavilion!
Lohmann! Maurice Read!! Shuter!!! they shouted. Key!!! Key!!! Lohmann!!! Lohmann!!!
Took down the number of Notts, Sir, and she's a redoubtable foeman.
We haven't licked her for years, and she crowed, Sir, and not without reason;
And now, under Shuter, we've done it at last, Sir, and twice in one season!
