Their bodies were never cut down;

For granny relates with amazement,

A witch bore 'em over the town.

And hung them on Thorowgood's casement.

The neighbours, I've heard the folks say,

The miracle noisily brag on;

And the shop is, to this very day,

The sign of the George and the Dragon.

Rum ti, &c.

PUNCH'S APOTHEOSIS.
