Rhyme Scheme: AABBCD EEFFGD HHIIJJ| Every Sunday there's a throng | A |
| Of pretty girls who trot along | A |
| In a pious breathless state | B |
| They are nearly always late | B |
| To the Chapel where they pray | C |
| For the sins of Saturday | D |
| - | |
| They have frocks of white and blue | E |
| Yellow sashes they have too | E |
| And red ribbons show each head | F |

| And the bell rings loud and the | G |
| Railway whistles urgently | D |

| After Chapel they will go | H |
| Walking delicately slow | H |
| Telling still how Father John | I |
| Is so good to look upon | I |
| And such other grave affairs | J |
| As they thought of during prayers | J |
