vox clamantis in deserto	A
	-
	-
	-
Said Malthus one day to a clown	B
Lying stretched on the beach in the sun	C
What's the number of souls in this town	B
The number Lord bless you there's none	C
	-
We have nothing but dabs in this place	D
Of them a great plenty there are	E
But the soles please your reverence and grace	D
Are all t'other side of the bar	E
	-
And so 'tis in London just now	F
Not a soul to be seen up or down	B
Of dabs a great glut I allow	F
But your soles every one out of town	B
	-
East or west nothing wondrous or new	G
No courtship or scandal worth knowing	H
Mrs B and a Mermaid or two	G
Are the only loose fish that are going	H
	-
Ah where is that dear house of Peers	I
That some weeks ago kept us merry	J
Where Eldon art thou with thy tears	K
And thou with thy sense Londonderry	J
	-
Wise Marquis how much the Lord Mayor	L
In the dog days with thee must be puzzled	A
It being his task to take care	M
That such animals shan't go unmuzzled	A
	-
Thou too whose political toils	N
Are so worthy a captain of horse	O
Whose amendments like honest Sir Boyle's	O
Are amendments that make matters worse	O
	-
Great Chieftain who takest such pains	O
To prove what is granted nem con	P
With how moderate a portion of brains	O
Some heroes contrive to get on	P
	-
And thou too my Redesdale ah where	M
Is the peer with a star at his button	C
Whose quarters could ever compare	M
With Redesdale's five quarters of mutton	C
	-
Why why have ye taken your flight	A
Ye diverting and dignified crew	G
How ill do three farces a night	A
At the Haymarket pay us for you	G
	-
For what is Bombastes to thee	J
My Ellenbro' when thou look'st big	Q
Or where's the burletta can be	J
Like Lauderdale's wit and his wig	Q
	-
I doubt if even Griffinhoof could	A
Tho' Griffin's a comical lad	A
Invent any joke half so good	A
As that precious one This is too bad	A
	-
Then come again come again Spring	H
Oh haste thee with Fun in thy train	R
And of all things the funniest bring	H
These exalted Grimaldis again	S
