These quaint and bizarre periwigs.

Now once I remember, ’twas late in November,

A handsome young blade struck the town;

Distingué he was this bold rusher, this crusher;

He did up us rural swains brown;

His hair was so curly, complexion so pearly;

His eyes flashed a real soulful glow;

He’d ancestors famous and average and heinous,

Of the last though he spoke “sotto vo.”

By profession a drummer, this hummer, this stunner;
