ETON FOOTBALL
(By Dumb-Crambo Junior.)
MIXED WALL "GAME" |
FOUR SHIES TO LOVE |
THE "DEMONS" TOOK PART |
FURKING OUT THE BAWL |
The seventh ends the mournful line,
Poor Stephen with his fractured spine,
A debt owe these good sons of mine,
That Foot-ball!
And as we pass the street-boys cry,
"Look at them cripples!" I but sigh,
"You're right, my friends. But would you fly
A lot like ours; oh, do not try
That Foot-ball!"
