The gallery of ladies, no longer in trouble,

Have freedom to talk, which they do at the double;

And everyone comes with a smile on his face,

To see senators ride in the Senators’ Race.

The “Heavies” in numbers are not very strong,

But good in the choice of Muntz, Bentinck, and Long;

The “Lights” have a favourite in Lees, who can show

His Dorsetshire horse is a nailer to go.

Two years in succession they fought for a place,

And pulled off the Stakes in the Senators’ Race.
