He is an Englishman!
For he himself has said it,
And it's greatly to his credit,
That he is an Englishman!.
For he might have been a Rooshian
A French or Turk or Proosian,
Or perhaps Itali-an.
But in spite of all temptations
To belong to other nations,
He remains an Englishman.

No Englishman unmoved that statement hears,
Because, with all our faults, we love our House of Peers.
