Who had made the attempt on his life,

Had stolen lamp, princess and wife.

With a shrewdness which would have done credit

To even a Yankee boy, he

Sought the lamp where the wizard had hid it,

And, turning a mystical key,

Brought it forth, and then, rubbing with glee,

“Back to China!” he cried. In a minute

The marvellous palace uprose,

With the Princess Badroulboudour in it
