Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDCEBFCG BHI| his papier m ch which you see my friends | A |
| Saith 'twas the worthiest of editors | B |
| Its mind was made up in 'the seventies' | B |
| Nor hath it ever since changed that concoction | C |
| It works to represent that school of thought | D |
| Which brought the hair cloth chair to such perfection | C |
| Nor will the horrid threats of Bernard Shaw | E |
| Shake up the stagnant pool of its convictions | B |
| Nay should the deathless voice of all the world | F |
| Speak once again for its sole stimulation | C |
| Twould not move it one jot from left to right | G |
| - | |
| Come Beauty barefoot from the Cyclades | B |
| She'd find a model for St Anthony | H |
| In this thing's sure decorum and behaviour | I |
