To the Congress, Britain for to represent.
I cut up Turkey and insulted Greece;
But you know I collared Cyprus, and I “brought back peace.”
For a “peace with honour” they rewarded me
By making of a nobleman a brave K.G.!
Now, statesmen all, whoever you may be,
If you’re wishful to emulate this “big, big D.,”
If your souls are not fettered to the Lower House,
Be careful to be guided by the rule of nous:
Stick close to the Crown, and never chop down trees,
