Was mooning around, to a neighbouring square, to join in an evening tea,

When a tremulous maiden, checked his steps, and cried him, "O Mister Man,

Me mother's afeered, that the two pair back, is goin' to kick the can!

O Mister Medical Sir, he's sick, an' owin' a quarter's rent,

An' that's the most, of the cause for why, of the hurry, that I was sent,

O Mister Medical Man, Sir please, O please Sir folly me quick,

You might be able to worry him thro' from the fit of the stiffnin' sick!

Oh! come Sir, please Sir, do Sir come,

O hurry an' come with me quick!"

From sympathetic professional heart, for indigent sick alway,
