Despite Themselves
Captain Mesmer brought me 'round
He was most charismatic
He tied me up to his old hound
Although I was asthmatic
He bade me cough three times an hour
And ladled out some syrup
And then he took me to his bower
This next will make you tear up:
He twirled around three times and spat
Into a golden bowl
And then he kicked me in the prat
And sundered thus my whole
He healed me, though; I kid you not
Since done, I am, with 'cure'
His therapy allayed my clot
My person once more is pure
