But all his remarks with romance have been crusted,
Joe was so very much out!
“Our Imperial Integrity” was the foundation
Which lured us to “back up” poor Joe’s declamation,
But the words, it appears, meant a clap-trap oration,
By Joe, who was very much out!
Then let us rejoice to rejoin the old master,
Who never has led us to wrong or disaster,
Nor pretended to cure us with “Brummagem plaster,”
Like Joe, who was very much out!
