SUSANNAH the fair With her beauties all bare, Was bathing her, was bathing herself in an arbour:
The Elders stood peeping, And pleased with the dipping, Would fain have steered into her harbour. But she in a rage, Swore she'd never engage, With monsters, with monsters, with monsters
so old and so feeble. This caused a great rout, Which had ne'er come about, Had the Elders been sprightly and able.

With her beauties all bare,
Was bathing her, was bathing herself in an arbour:
The Elders stood peeping,
And pleased with the dipping,
Would fain have steered into her harbour.
But she in a rage,
Swore she'd never engage,
With monsters, with monsters, with monsters
so old and so feeble.
This caused a great rout,
Which had ne'er come about,
Had the Elders been sprightly and able.
