Ven she cried 'sprats' in Vestminister, Oh! sich a sveet loud woice, sir, You could 'ear 'er all up Parlyment Street, And as far as Charing Cross, sir."
The anshunt Britons never hed any tailory done, but thay wur all artists wi' the paint pot. The Consarvatives painted thurselves bloo, and the Radicals yaller, an' thay as danced the longest, the Roomans sent to Parlyment to rool the roost. I wur show'd the pleace wur the peeple started vor Lunnon.

"A free pardon to h'every man h'all round, a free pass back to Boulon " "And the thanks o Parlyment for what we done to the crew o the Curlew!" piped Bandy.

Now, you're somethin' of a capitalist, too, I surmise." He paused expectant. "A what, friend?" "Why, you're in some Trust er other, ain't ye? Member of Congress I mean Parlyment friend of Lord What's-'is-name Clerk of the Star suthin' or other. Guess you're pretty middlin' rich, ain't ye?"

I don't want to sacrifice nobody to satisfy my aspirations. Why? Because I've got none. That's priceless. Take the Press, take Parlyment, take Mayors all mad on aspirations.
