A MERRY SONG ABOUT MURDER.
I. There was, and a very great fool,
Who fancy'd all subjects were slaves;
Who endeavour'd at absolute rule,
By th' help of a parcel of knaves.
Now cutting of throats was his joy,
And making red rivers of blood,
A fine button his favourite toy;
Tho his habits were not very good.
Tol lol do.
. . . [4 more verses with burden of "Tol lol do."]
