And Whigs prepare to clear the way
For the great Conservative Party!
Gladstone, Russell, Grey & Co.,
Nobody mourns your overthrow—
Your time is come—so out you go
With the Chief of the Liberal Party!
E. J. Goodman, 1864.
These verses were first sung at a dinner of the Edinburgh Conservative Club, on February 19, 1864, and were published in the Edinburgh Courant, February 21, 1864.
