Excerpt from The Revolt of the Workhouse: A Burlesque Ballet Opera, in One Act
That's right, good folks, - I love to hear you Songs of affection to your workhouse king; Since king I am; though my parental sway Is only over paupers, let me say, I'm not the only sovereign, I fear, That rules o'er pauper subjects. Hear Ah! Hear (a violent ring is heard at the bell.) That ring proclaims there's some one at the gate. Ah 'tis our beadle with a broken pate.
