There was a story that I once was told,
Some woman that they used to tease him with.
Bar. 1. He grew too stern for teasing before long;
A man with greater power of what I think
They call, in some new sense of the word, Repulsion,
I think I never saw in all my life.
Bar. 2. A most forbidding man in private life,
I’ve always heard. What’s this new news?
Bar. 4. The Lord Chief Justice has resigned.
Bar. 1, 2, 3. Is it true?
