Nor not a citril within, without,

But heard the racket and heard the rout

And marvelled what it was all about

(And who shall shrive Beelzebub?)

He whacked so hard the drum was split

(Pom-pom, rub-a-dub-dum)

Out lept Saint Gabriel from it

(Praeclarissimus Omnium)

Who spread his wings and up he went

Nor ever paused in his ascent
