Ginger came back as a customer, and took it out of Mohamed.

He hadn't sold a damn shirt on the Tuesday.

And I met Yusuf and eight men in the calle,

So I sez: "Wot is the matter ?"

And Yusuf said: "Vairy foolish, it will

"Be sefen an' seex for the summons !

"Mohamed want to sue him for libel --

"To give all that to the court ! "

So I went off to Granada,

And when I came back I saw Ginger, and I said:

"How about it?" And he said:

"O-a, I geef him a seex-pence".

And they were there in the lyceo,

Cab-drivers, and chaps from tobacco shops,

Edward

And ~~Edward~~ the Seventh's guide, and they were all
for secession;

Dance halls being closed at two in the morning

By the governor's order. And another day on the pier

Was a fat felleh from Rhode Island, a sayin'

"Bi-hek ! I been all thru Italy

an' aint never been stuck,

"But this place is plumb full er scoundrels."

An' Yusuf said: "Yais; an' the reech man

"In youah countree, haow they get their money,

"They no go rob some poor pairssonns ? "

And the fat felleh shut up, and went off.

And Yusuf said: "Woat ! he iss all thru Italy

"And ee iss nevair been stuck ! Ee ees a liar.

"When I goa to some forgaing country

"I am stuck; when they come 'ere I steek thaim."
