Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEAFAGAA| In Breughel's great picture The Kermess | A |
| the dancers go round they go round and | B |
| around the squeal and the blare and the | C |
| tweedle of bagpipes a bugle and fiddles | A |
| tipping their bellies round as the thick | D |
| sided glasses whose wash they impound | E |
| their hips and their bellies off balance | A |
| to turn them Kicking and rolling about | F |
| the Fair Grounds swinging their butts those | A |
| shanks must be sound to bear up under such | G |
| rollicking measures prance as they dance | A |
| in Breughel's great picture The Kermess | A |
