There were cradles and pap, boots, and rattles complete,

And lots of small chairs with large holes in the seat.

The head nurse Miss Peel, declared with much joy,

She never saw such a sweet little boy.

She’d clap him she said at the head of the police,

That is if his mamma would give him that leave,

Says old Waterloo Nell, it shall be no such thing,

For the Prince he was born to become a great king;

When the child to decide the question let fly,

With a basin of pap knock’d out Betty Peel’s eye.
