As keep him in the tomb cold pressed.)

I will not torture, neither be
A party to their villainy.
Aggressive war I must denounce,
And with each syllable pronounce
My opposition; though they trounce
Dissent, of truth they have no ounce.
(A body lain before a tank
May be profane with none to thank,
But though ´tis slain while keeping rank
Let heaven´s blessing prove no prank.)
This is Rat´s Alley
Dingy and smelly;
The cat O´Malley
Scratches his belly.
