MULKERN, entranced beheld the throng,

Impressed was he with the ’cello song.

Saintly McCRAW shed one large tear

O’er wee Baptiste on his truckle bier.

The joke on MURPHY was a scream

Beyond the Company’s fondest dream.

FALSTAFF sampled some nut-brown ale,

Requested a schooner and then a pail:

ANGUS TORY and WELLAND STRONG

Thought they too would ride along,
