Percy O'Halloran Tarpy CabeeD
Is in the political swimE
He cares not a button for men not heF
Great principles captivate himE
Principles cleverly cut out and fittedG
To Percy's capacity duly submittedG
And fought for by Mr CabeeD

Drusus Turn Swinnerton Porfer FitzurseC
Holds office the most of his lifeH
For men nor for principles cares he a curseC
But much for his neighbor's wifeH
The Ship of State leaks but he doesn't pump anyF
Messrs Mahosh Cabee CompanyF
Pump for good Mr FitzurseC
