"Oh, here is the wizard from Wales,
The wonderful wizard from Wales,
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?"
