# The criminal cried
as he dropped him down

2:14:18
# In a state of wild alarm
2:14:21
# With a frightful frantic fearful frown
2:14:25
# I bared my big right arm
2:14:28
# I seized him by his little pigtail
2:14:32
# And on his knees
2:14:34
# Fell he
2:14:35
# As he squirmed and struggled
and gurgled and guggled

2:14:39
# I drew my snickersnee
2:14:43
# My snickersnee
2:14:48
# Never shall I forget the cry
2:14:51
# Or the shriek that shriek-ed he
2:14:55
# As I gnashed my teeth
when from its sheath

2:14:58
# I drew my snickersnee
2:15:02
# We know him well
2:15:03
# He cannot tell
2:15:05
# Untrue or groundless tales
2:15:09
# He always tries to utter lies
2:15:12
# And every time he fails
2:15:16
# He shivered and shook
as he gave the sign

2:15:19
# For the stroke he didn't deserve
2:15:23
# When all of a sudden
2:15:25
# His eye met mine
2:15:26
# And it seemed to brace his nerve
2:15:30
# For he nodded his head
2:15:32
# And kissed his hand
2:15:34
# And he whistled an air, did he
2:15:37
# As the sabre true
2:15:39
# Cut cleanly through
2:15:41
# His cervical vertebrae
2:15:45
# His vertebrae
2:15:50
# When a man's afraid
2:15:52
# A beautiful maid
2:15:53
# Is a cheering sight to see
2:15:57
# And it's oh, I'm glad
2:15:59
# That moment sad
