With his ‘Pass me a glass
Of the bitter of Bass!’
To buy all the liquor of Burton-on-Trent.
But after they went
He wasn’t content,
Though he drank all the liquor of Burton-on-Trent.
It remained for a Hebrew a cure to propose—
He knew that his highness
Was famed for his dryness,
And melted him down to make waterproof clo’s!
