For to gain a repute is my pride,

Though no vun can doubt my renown,

I’m a covey of polish beside!

I renovates cases for feet,

Whether high-lows or tops is the same,

I turns ’em off hand werry neat,

And Samivel Veller’s my name!

In the Borough my trade I dragged on,

Vith no vun to envy my sphere;

I polish’d the soles of each don,
