The welsher's book, the welsher's book, is mirror of thy glories:
It's ready when their horse comes in,
But somewhat muddled when you win.
The welsher's book, the welsher's book, whips Black's in point of stories!
So Derby week, oh, Derby week, your usual style, we think, errs,
In ending in too cheerful nights,
Headaches and debts, green veils and fights,
And Derby week, oh, Derby week, Dutch dolls and British drinkers.
Funny Folks, June 8, 1878.
