Secret Sin of Septimus B. — Chapter The Secret Sin (Part 6 of 6)

A few weeks later in Blackpool and places where they sing, the following refrain held undisputed sway:

How you bore me, Florrie,
With those eyes of vacant blue;
You’ll be very sorry, Florrie,
If I marry you.
Though I’m easy-goin’, Florrie,
This I swear is true,
I’ll throw you down a quarry, Florrie,
If I marry you.
