And rusty nails, and callous knots,

Stuck from the bench against the wall.

The wooden bed felt hard and strange;

Lost was the key that oped the latch;

To light his pipe he had no match,

Within the Bow Street station's range.

He only said, "It's very dreary;"

"Bail will not come," he said;

He said, "I have been very beery,

I would I were a-bed!"
