Sir Hudson Lowe Sir Hudson Low | D |
By name and ah by nature so | D |
As thou art fond of persecutions | A |
Perhaps thou'st read or heard repeated | B |
How Captain Gulliver was treated | B |
When thrown among the Lilliputians | A |
- | |
They tied him down these little men did | B |
And having valiantly ascended | B |
Upon the Mighty Man's protuberance | A |
They did so strut upon my soul | E |
It must have been extremely droll | E |
To see their pigmy pride's exuberance | A |
- | |
And how the doughty mannikins | A |
Amused themselves with sticking pins | A |
And needles in the great man's breeches | A |
And how some very little things | A |
That past for Lords on scaffoldings | A |
Got up and worried him with speeches | A |
- | |
Alas alas that it should happen | F |
To mighty men to be caught napping | G |
Tho' different too these persecutions | A |
For Gulliver there took the nap | H |
While here the Nap oh sad mishap | H |
Is taken by the Lilliputians | A |
