| Far far away in Belfast by the sea | B |
| His watchful one eyed uninvaded sleep | A |
| MacCracken sleepeth While the P R B | B |
| Must keep the shady side he walks a swell | C |
| Through spungings of perennial growth and height | D |
| And far away in Belfast out of sight | D |
| By many an open do and secret sell | C |
| Fresh daubers he makes shift to scarify | E |
| And fleece with pliant shears the slumbering green | F |
| There he has lied though aged and will lie | G |
| Fattening on ill got pictures in his sleep | A |
| Till some Pr raphael prove for him too deep | A |
| Then once by Hunt and Ruskin to be seen | F |
| Insolvent he will turn and in the Queen's Bench die | G |
