The Magic Pudding
Let pap engage

The gums of age

And appetites that droop;

We much prefer to chew

A Steak-and-kidney stew.

'Let yokels coarse appease

Their appetites with cheese.

Let women dream

Of cakes and cream,

We scorn fal-lals like these;

Our sterner sex extols

The joy of boiled jam rolls.[Pg 69]

[Pg 69]

'We scorn digestive pills;

Give us the food that fills;

Who bravely stuff

Themselves with Duff,

May laugh at Doctor's bills.

For medicine, partake

Of kidney, stewed with steak.
