And through the portal burst and tear!

Ah! what a cataract of slush

And monstrous mud was there to see.

Like noisome soup appeared to gush

The sizy torrent, now set free;

And in the mess lurched figures bloated,

With fat heads, whose dull eyes still gloated

On morsels that around them floated

Of callipash and callipee.

The Sword, the Cap, the Mace, the Chain,
