He finally declared, in trembling voice,
"I’d pay a ransom of fifty guineas
For a dowager with many chinnies".

Said one of the ladies whom he chose
I was hoping he would not propose
I am free to make my choice
And not be Missus elmer Joyce

When no one would marry old man Wilbee,
He finally shouted out as loud as could be.
"I’d pay an amount of five hundred dollars
for any lady you know who was a
scholar(s)".
