As there was in the brave days of yore!

How Willan and Warre and stout "Johnny" Moss

Must recurrence of past time re-wish,

And the sight be to them and to rowing a loss,

But I only can think of the fish

Who are poisoned by garbage and bloated with food,

And oppressed with the bottles o'erthrown!

My sentiments, though by the many pooh-poohed,

By the few will be met with a moan!
