The gentlemen of Dickens	A
Were mostly very poor	B
And innocent of grammar	C
And of parentage obscure	D
But rich or poor or thriving	E
Of high or lowly birth	F
The gentlemen of Dickens	A
Were the grandest on the earth	F
	-
The gentlemen of Dickens	A
They wore no fancy names	G
Like Reginald or Percy	H
Fitzgerald or FitzJames	H
But names for fools to laugh at	I
That sound like hob nailed boots	H
Like Newman Noggs and Knubbles	H
Toodles and Mr Toots	H
	-
They d little save their kindness	H
Their honesty and truth	J
They mostly came embarrassed	K
And stammering and uncouth	J
But the gentlemen of Dickens	H
Their women and their girls	H
Could speak their minds if need be	H
To ladies and to earls	H
	-
But one who wore a title	L
A lesson too could teach	M
Lord Feenix Cousin Feenix	H
Of wandering legs and speech	M
O he might teach a lesson	N
A gentleman could give	O
Where he stands by his lovely	H
And accomplished relative	O
	-
	-
The gentlemen of Dickens	H
Were gamblers now and then	P
And looked upon the ladies	H
No doubt like other men	P
And some of them were drunkards	H
It cannot be denied	Q
But one washed all their sins away	R
When Sidney Carton died	Q
	-
	-
The gentlemen of Dickens	H
Are round us here to day	R
For their self sacrificing	E
Brave spirits live for aye	S
They cheer my heart and lift it	T
They set my blood aglow	U
For I was once a gentleman	N
Though it was years ago	U
