THE LORD CHANCELLOR'S SONG.

(The Up-to-date Version.)

Oh! pity the lot of a harassed Lord Chancellor,

Suffering badly from too much to do.

Appointments to give, and appointments to cancel or

Magistrate making, not knowing who's who.

Work of a quantity highly distressing,

Jack-like it's dull with all work and no play.

I start in the morning when hurriedly dressing.

And stick to it then for full twelve hours a day.
