They ratted an’ they ranted, an’ the next thing they did find

Was a bull calf in a Tory fold, an’ that they left behind.

Look ye there!

One said it was a bull calf, an’ another he said, “Nay,

It’s just a little jackass that has never learnt to bray.”

Look ye there!

(Lord R. Churchill).

They ratted an’ they ranted, an’ the next thing they did find

Was a two-three children leaving school, an’ these they left behind.

Look ye there!
