 So he footed it home and he dragged the cart— But the horse was all right last week,
 * They said,

He trotted a match last week.

So he asked the bushies who came from far To visit the town last week, If they'd dine with him, and they said 'Hurrah! But there wasn't a drop in the whisky jar— You should have been here last week,
 * He said,

I drank it all up last week!
