TO C.J. DENNIS by Danstewer

From the Blokes:

We'd like to yeh, Dennis, on them jor,
   Fer killin' Ginger, in yeh rotten pome,
Yeh might 'ave let 'im mizzle through the war,
   'N' come back 'ome.
'N' don't yeh show yeh dial in Spadger's Lane,
'Nless yeh bring 'im back ter light again.

From the Toms:
  
'Ere, Dennis, carn't yeh give us Toms a chance,
   'Oo've just begun ter lov 'ole Ginger Mick.
Now, be a sport, an' say that 'e's in France,
   In bonzer nick.
'N' 'ave a 'eart fer frettin' Rossie's sake,
'N' let 'er 'ear yeh killed 'im by mistake.
