I wur carried off my legs—shoved on the elevation,
So I got a seat for nought to see the Coronation.

Tol lol lol, &c.



I sat me down quite quietly, nobody came to rout me
I slily cast my eyes upon the ladies round about me:
The sun shone down so very hot, they were all in :perspiration,
It melted all their red and white at the famous
Coronation

Tol lol lol, &c.



At last the Queen herself did come, dressed up so fine.
Oh! dear me,
I ne'er before in all my life had had a queen so near
me;
She graciously did make her bow to me and :congregation,
So I was taken notice of at the famous Coronation.

Tol lol lol, &c.



When this wur done, I thought, thinks I, I've seen
that I can see,
So out I got, and found that I'd paid dearly for my
fancy;
I'd lost a sovereign and my purse, and on :examination,
My watch which ne'er did go before, did go at the
Coronation.

Tol lol lol, &c.
