Rh For I'm not so old, and not so plain, And I'm quite prepared to marry again, But there'd be the deuce to pay in the Lords If I fell in love with one of my Wards:
 * Which rather tries my temper, for
 * I'm such a susceptible Chancellor!

And everyone who'd marry a Ward Must come to me for my accord: So in my court I sit all day. Giving agreeable girls away, With one for him—and one for he— And one for you—and one for ye— And one for thou—and one for thee— But never, oh never a one for me!
 * Which is exasperating, for
 * A highly susceptible Chancellor!
