I wur carried off my legs—shoved on the elevation, So I got a seat for nought to see the Coronation.

I sat me down quite quietly, nobody came to rout me I slily cast my eyes upon the ladies round about me: The sun shone down so very hot, they were all in :perspiration, It melted all their red and white at the famous
 * Coronation

At last the Queen herself did come, dressed up so fine.
 * Oh! dear me,

I ne'er before in all my life had had a queen so near
 * me;

She graciously did make her bow to me and :congregation, So I was taken notice of at the famous Coronation.

When this wur done, I thought, thinks I, I've seen
 * that I can see,

So out I got, and found that I'd paid dearly for my
 * fancy;

I'd lost a sovereign and my purse, and on :examination, My watch which ne'er did go before, did go at the
 * Coronation.
