They think we want bribes to get a vote,

Like the Tories from Parnell, then cut his throat;

But in vulgar phrase, it is all in “my eye,”

“A great, big, thumping,” Tory “lie;”

It has no existence in sober sense,

It’s the product of Tory insolence;

It’s author I think was the man in the moon,

And if you expect to find such a boon—

It is there, it is there, my man.
