    (continued from previous page)
    a man of high renown.
    Dan said he had a powder got from a man in Spain
    And he would bring Kelly up a sample when he would come back again.
    It would brighten up the worst of the old crabs
    And be sure and keep the secret from the hawker Bessy Babs.
    Before I do conclude my boys I will you one advice
    To help those Freestate farmers and give them a good price.
    And when you meet them on the road should you will left up your hat
    To salute those apple dealers that they call Dan and Pat.
