I find that I had lots of foes,

So I will stick to England’s Rose,

And never will surrender.

Last night as I lay on my bed,

Some dreadful things came in my head,

I dreamt that I was whacked with a birch,

And that I’d swallowed the Irish Church.

Oh, Bright and Gladstone go the rig,

The Irish Church the fishes and pigs,

That you may be choked with Parsons’ wigs,
