ROUTE MARCHIN’
199
Ho! get away, you bullock-man, you’ve’eard the bugle blowed,
There’s a regiment a-comin’ down the Grand Trunk Road.
   With its best foot first
   And the road a-sliding past,
   An’ every bloomin’ campin’-ground exactly like the last;
   While the Big Drum says,
   With ’is ‘rowdy-dowdy-dow!’—
   Kiko kissywarsti don’t you hamsher argyjow?[1]

  1. Why don’t you get on?
