Those servants of the Church—
Who have children thus lamenting beyond measure—
I will not leave in the lurch!
All ministers who’re not in a position
To pay for seats my pantomime to see,
Shall anon to Drury Lane have free admission,
If they send in full particulars to me.”
Such as (probably) their date of ordination,
And what their “plates” collect;
And if they have their bishop’s approbation;
