The squatter kings of New South Wales—

The squatter kings who reign

O'er rocky hill, and scrubby ridge,

O'er swamp, and salt-bush plain—

Fenced in their runs, and coves applied

For shepherding in vain.

The squatters said that closed should be

To tramps each station-store;

That parties on the "cadging suit"

Should ne'er have succour more;
