Why couldn't you make a slight shindy before

You poked in your carcase?—We'd held then his tail—it

Must now be 'gen cotched, or some feller will stale it."

And he rustled his gown,

Which at once Loony heeded;

For the priests then were held by the whole of the nation

In the highest respect, and in great veneration.

"Your pardon, your rev'rence, I knew not 'twas you,"
