And popp'd it on the Chaplain's poll,

As he sate in the corner dead.

Upon the box he tied him then,

With the reins behind his back,

Put a pipe in his mouth, the whip in his hand,

And set off the horses, smack!

Then whisper'd in his black mare's ear,

Who luckily wasn't fagg'd,

"You must gallop fast and far, my dear,

Or I shall be surely scragg'd."
