While struggling through this world of woe,
by careless Sop we stub or toe,
And then we hastily cry or

How apt to swear at our defeat,
And say its all a cursed cheat,
BIT by lhander.
Should we kave two dollars to pay,
Would We as gentlemen say nay,
Or rail, swear, ldre and say
Bit by thunder
Even il we fail to get the tin,
We cannot swer its a sin,
No gentleman wud do such thing,

This the Espeytown delegation understood,
And charged you no NOR, than men hould.

And will quit while we feel fine,
And leave YOU to make the other rhyme
