To buy a vacant small estate

Adjoining Blobbs, who went and did

Something illegal with a gate.

Webbe "had him up" for that, of course;

Then something else (about a horse),

And later on a water-course.

He sued for this, he sued for that,

Till action upon action lay,

And in the Royal Courts of Law

"Webbe versus Blobbs" came on each day.
