Arkard they'd look suppose they was tryin' to plough.

When the dancin' was done unto supper we went,

And I feasted away to my full heart's content,

On cake, chicken, lobster, sweets, aught I could find,

The fust time I ever ate all I'd a mind.

'Tis the bein' acknowledged, you see, like that 'ere,

Is what makes me feel proudish this clothin' to wear,

I should say "Dash the buttons!" if that warn't the case,

And consider the quoat but a badge o' disgrace.
