So now the BrandsA
Seek other landsA
Alack long ere they reach 'emB
A fickle crowdC
Will cheer as loudC
For godly Governor BeauchampD
-
-
'Twill be Hampden's lotE
To be soon forgotE
Now an Earl is his successorF
But the new chum EarlG
Will bring no girlG
Like Dorothy Brand God bless herF
-
-
Then let it be knownH
That all of us ownH
Since her dad to Australia brought herF
That there has not beenI
Nor will there be seenJ
Another such Governor's daughterF
-
-
Yes we all concurF
In respect to herF
Ideas are not dividingK
There's no 'seat ' nor 'hands'A
Like Dorothy Brand'sA
When she goes out a ridingK
-
-
And each AustralianL
And every alienL
Who rides as straight as he 'oughter '-
Has been fain to yieldM
In the hunting fieldM
To the prowess of Hampden's daughterF
-
-
So doff your 'cady'M
To this young ladyM
Hooray with your hat in your handM
Australia's prideM
Was the girl who could rideM
Like the Honorable Dorothy BrandM
