Who can slat the King’s English, I swear by

old Ben!

And you’ll never appreciate half of my praise

Till you’ve stood there yourself in the beller

and blaze

Of his thirteen-inch barker, and fust thing you

know

Discover you’ve bought an old bone yard or so,

I hardly expect, O ye hurrying throng,

Ye’ll bow to my hero, applaud my rude song,
