THE USHER'S CHARGE.
Now, Jurymen, hear my advice--
All kinds of vulgar prejudice
I pray you set aside:
With stern judicial frame of mind,
From bias free of every kind,
This trial must be tried!
All kinds of vulgar prejudice
I pray you set aside:
With stern judicial frame of mind,
From bias free of every kind,
This trial must be tried!
Oh, listen to the plaintiff's case:
Observe the features of her face--
The broken-hearted bride!
Condole with her distress of mind:
From bias free of every kind,
This trial must be tried!
Observe the features of her face--
The broken-hearted bride!
Condole with her distress of mind:
From bias free of every kind,
This trial must be tried!
And when amid the plaintiff's shrieks,
The ruffianly defendant speaks--
Upon the other side;
What he may say you needn't mind--
From bias free of every kind,
This trial must be tried!
The ruffianly defendant speaks--
Upon the other side;
What he may say you needn't mind--
From bias free of every kind,
This trial must be tried!
