We all vented our tears in a shower;

For my part, I thought my heart broke

To see him cut down like a flower!

On his travels we watch’d him next day,

O, the hangman I thought I could kill him!

Not one word did our poor Larry say,

Nor changed till he came to “King William:”

Och, my dear! then his colour turn’d white.

When he came to the nubbing cheat,

He was tuck’d up so neat and so pretty;
