Pray, Stanley, did you see the Nigaroes
Upon the Nggeratchion
And did you their little huts
All grouping there with thatch upons
Upon the Gitchy -Gitchy.wees
Near by the home of Tippoo Tip;
There did yOu hear the BoOgoos sneezs
with influenza and Ia grippel
And did you see the quinine fields.
Where pills on little bushes growe
And did You the Doctors hut,
With patients standing in a rowf
And did you see the Doctors boy
Roll barrels up Of BugbaOo
And take the cOwries from each hand,
Between cough and a Kerchew"f
And did you see McGinty there,
or did he, too, escape from yOu1
How he dressed-in sunday best,
In oil skins, or in mere tattoo7
And did you see the mcrobe boys,
And little dwarfs with little spears,
Ana poisoned barbs, and jungle dogs
Pray did you hurt the little dearsi
And in the Mountains of the Moon,
And In the mOOny mountains dell,
Where dwes the King the Great BaEoo1,
Pray had he heard Of our John LII
Where did you leave old sheepshead Bey,
Old BaGOman and all that grOupi

And glad you are for who could doubt II.
Come home again 10 Yankee land,
sit down, and tell US all about it.
