And instead of the tables he hung on the wall,

Have referred to the table in this festive hall;

And as for his facts—have more clearly got at ’em

From us than from Sappers and Miners at Chatham;

Whilst like jolly good souls

We emptied our bowls,

And so washed down our grub

In a style worth the name,

Wealth, honour, and fame

Of the Royal Society Club.
