The British Prime Minister,
_MR. WILLIAMS._ Subtle and sinister. _Chorus._ Oh, no! That is only your fancy. Disputes he can manage and check; All parties respond to his beck. _MR. WILLIAMS._ He talks through the back of his neck! _Chorus._ When he talks through the back of his neck We call it his neck-romancy." Of the arguments used by Mr. LLOYD GEORGE after this spirited encouragement no record remains but the following passage:-- "My dear Mr. SMILLIE, We value you highly Howe'er so ferociously raven you. We must find a way out, And we shall do, no doubt, If we only explore every avenue. _Chorus._ Yes, please, do explore every avenue. [_Exeunt Mr. LLOYD GEORGE and Mr. SMILLIE arm-in-arm, R. (? followed by St. Bernard) and return C. Exeunt L. and return C. again, and so on._ _Chorus._ Oh, have you explored every avenue?" |
