It is a youngish mariner
And he's stopping one of four
'By your bushy beard and leering eye,
Why push me on the floor?
My husband's mates are all around
I am expected in
I may get wet but not just yet
I hope you're not too thin.''
He holds her with his chubby hand
''Here is my dick'' coughs he
''Hands off, you fucking creep!''
Eftsoons he touched her knee.

This sounds familiar.

The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.

'tisn't, but eftsoons 'twill be. We can sing the old Crystal Palace songs there as well as in the Crooked Billet. I'm known for my rendering of the 'Jolly Old Iguanodon' --but it's a locals only thing.
It is a hamlet of verse and song, home of Walter de la Mare --and -- Gwyer 'Penge's Poetic Potato Salesman'. My style rather takes after him....
