CHAUNT.

There was Edward of Carnarvon, who proved himself a brave one—and the glorious Black Prince, who made the Frenchmen wince—at Cressy and Poictiers, despite their swords and spears—Harry Monmouth, our Fifth Harry, who would for no one tarry, —but for England nobly fought, and won at Agineourt —Bluff Hal, who had six wives, and loved them all thair lives! Our Second Charles the morry so fond of drinking Sherry—to George the Fourth and last, but they all will be surpassed, by our Young Prince, bless his heart! his namesake's counterpart, who's come, we well may say, to make every dwelling gay.

From the very top of their roofs to the bottom,
Down below!
And who was born on Lord Mayor's Day,
Therefore will we be merry!
