Then you, with unalloyed delight, Will gamble till the morning light Bursts through the jalousies shut tight,

Chinaman divine!

If we should foil the livelong day. Then gamble half the night away, We'd soon reside beneath the clay.

Yet there's a habit, all agree. Which mars your sweet simplicity And makes us shun your company,

Spitting, spitting all the day. -At home and on the King's highway. Spitting at work, spitting at play,

If on your junk you chance to bu. You swell the volume of the sea By spitting in the ocean free,

Chiqaman divine!

On share nu sonner de you thrust Your fool than it appear you must Do all on van to lay the dust,

Chipaman divane!

In thronging market, erowded stress. Regardless of your neighbours' feet. Equally careless whom you meet,

Chinaman divine

If you some hefter warning found Before, with brief and ragous sizund, You suniter your bacilli round,

'hinuman divine!

Then we could fightly step aside And gladly give you space more wide, While you relieve your poor inside,

Chinaman divine!

The ferry is fruitful source. There's nothing else to do, of course, But spil us you wend your way across,

Chinaman divine!

If you would give up this one vice You might indulge the others twice. Double your garlic with your rice,

Chinaman divine!

*T would add so much to your great charm. If we could pass without alarm, Nor fear expectorated harin,

Chinaman divine!

*

In virtues you surpass us far. But this vile habit Fonds fo mar Your almost blameless character,

Cinaman divine!

To put the matter straight and plain. You spoil the roud, the street, the lane, With all this artificial rain,)

You spoil the tram, you spoil the train, So now, we beg you once again, Praying we shall not plead in vain,

Do, kindly, once for all, refrain!
