"Then hey for boot and horse, lad!
And round the world away!

There's a formula which the west country clowns
Once used, ere their blows fell thick,
At the fairs on the Devon and Cornwall downs
In their bouts with the single-stick,
You may read a moral, not far amiss,
If you care to moralise,
In the crossing guard, where the ash-plants kiss,
To the words “God spare our eyes.”
