In the next scene were the king and the queen on their throne,
To whom the petition was presently shown;
But king Arthur from Doodle indignantly shrunk,
"For," says he, "'tis our pleasure this day to get drunk."
So thinks I to myself, an' that's what you're about,
There's no business for me, sure, to see the play out;
To my own native parts I will quickly go down,
I can learn to get drunk there as well as in town.
So I'ze ta'en me a place at George and Blue Boar,
