(“Deuced queer!” says Randy)
“Such a chance old Gladstone never will miss,
With his Homer, Home Rule, gammon and spinach.”
(“Heigho!” sighs sad little Randy.)
The Premier was swimming along one day,
(“What’ll come next?” says Randy)
A grand old duck came and gobbled him up,
With his Salisbury, Halsbury, Goschen, and spinach.
(“All up” says little Lord Randy.)
