Ye Printer doth right merrily

His occupation ply;

Ye type he sets and proof he reads

With microscopic eye.

And when ye chap-book all is done

He sallies forth with speed

To cry his wares upon ye street

For all who care to read.

Ye Printer wrought with right good will,

Nor ever was afraid

Of ye Typographic Union

Or ye Printers’ Board of Trade.
