class="i0">But, though his strange position
Excited some suspicion,
We've Curzon's frank admission
Of joy he hasn't gone.

O keep your eye on Lulu
Who Greater Britain sways
From distant Woolloomooloo
To Nova Scotia's bays;
Whose sumptuous urbanity,
Combined with well-groomed sanity
And freedom from profanity,
Stirs David's deep amaze.
O keep your eye on Birrell,
So wholly free from guile,
Conspicuous by his absence
From Erin's peaceful isle;
Who wakes from floor to rafter
The House to heedless laughter,
Careless of what comes after
Can he but raise a smile.
O keep your eye on Masterman,
Dear David's henchman leal,
Whose piety and "uplift"
Make ribald Tories squeal;
In every public function
Displaying the conjunction
Of perfect moral unction
With perfect Party zeal.
Last, keep your eye on Asquith,
And he will bring you through,
No matter what his colleagues
May say or think or do;
For in the dirtiest weather
He moulted not a feather,
And safely kept together
His variegated crow.

The Siamese Twin.
