He shot his wife and daughter dear, it cruel was, and sad,
And wanted to make it appear the villian, he was mad.
Five innocents he did destroy, how dreadful to unfold,
Mrs. White’s three little boys, his wife and child, were told;
The boys he killed in London, which caused great excitement round,
And his wife and lovely daughter he killed in Ramsgate town.
When Mrs White’s dear children he did in London slay,
He with a dreadful weapon to Ramsgate went straightway;
His own wedded wife and daughter, so maliciously he shot,
And thousands flocked from far around to view the dreadful spot.
