    A vehicle for first inspect,
    It calls here ev'ry day;
    The traders it they do expect,
    Its absence brings dismay.
    An interogative - it's French.
    Will nicely do for near,
    'Tis little trouble to you, Lynch,
    It will not make you vexed.

    For last a place of shelter find, -
    The farmer finds it handy -
    Dear Eddie, you must bear in mind,
    Without it would be cranky
    The total you have seldom been.
    At solving you're first rate;
    The premier honour, will I ween,
    Be yours in thirty eight.
