What a world this of ours would be, O foreign Powers,

If all nations behaved like the British!


This is Liberty Hall; no restriction at all

On the freedom of speaking and writing;

The result is that, say any fool what he may,

Foolish language occasions no fighting.

'Tis the easiest job to disperse any mob,

Without being so much as pumped on

By a fire-engine hose, off the multitude goes,
