[“The Duke went to Treves]

[The varlet.]
“The Duke went to Treves
On the first of November;
His wife stay'd at Bonn—
Let me see, I remember;
“When the Duke came back
To look for his wife,
We came from Cologne,
And took the Duke's life;
“We hung him mid-high
Between spire and pavement,
From their mouths dropp'd the cabbage
Of the carles in amazement.”
