THE PENGE MYSTERY TRIAL.
YOU must come and dress me early, very early, Simmons, mind!
For to-morrow'll be the summing-up, and I must not be behind;
Of all this jolly trial, I'm told, to-morrow'll be the day,
So be sure you call me early, Simmons; now attend to what I say!
The judge means hanging, so they say, and when the sentence's pass'd,
There's sure to be an awful scene, more curious than the last;
P'raps the men will have hysterics—that would be fun to see!
And Alice Rhodes may have a fit. Oh! how jolly it will be!
