He only said, "The cell is dreary;"

"Bail cometh not," he said;

He said, "I must be very beery,

I'd rather be in bed!"

All night within that gloomy cell

The keys within the padlock creaked;

The tipsy 'gents' bawled out as well,

And in the dungeons yelled and shrieked.

Policemen slyly prowled about;

Their faces glimmered through the door,
