Burn these damned taxation-papers!

All these scribblers may look out soon

If this flame can be extinguished

With the fluid in their inkstands."

Didst consign me to a dungeon;

Poor my fare, with only water!

Thou hast wine within thy cellar,

And I hope we now shall try it.

Yes, with thee I'll square accounts soon!"
