The self-same boy, with self-same pay,
Cleans all the shoes; again next day
He re-appears, just in the nick,
First cuts the loaf, then cuts his stick!
When errands you are sent upon,
Be sure to blend them with your own;
The boy can't deputize, 'tis clear,
When it's to drink a pot of beer
Or kiss your sweetheart; either wicket,
Wants an untransferable ticket.
