 Then away they started out. 



Not long, &c. 



4. 



It rained and blowed quite hardj 

 But they cared the devil a bit, 

 Said Peter we're both tough and strong, 

 And more, we are used to it. 

 They trudged an easy pace, 

 Till Tottenham cross they pass'd 

 When Tommy said to Peter Pike 

 The rain has ceased at last. 



Not long, &c. 



5. 



When near to Ponder's-end 



They heard a mighty splash, 



And looking forth, they saw two men 



A net in the water dash. 



Now Peter in a rage 



Was going to call out, 



But he very gently was kept back 



By cautious Tommy Trout. 



Not long, &c.
