OLD UNCLE EBONEZER DEWER


Old Uncle Ebonezer Dewer started pink but ended bluer.
Two million pounds he had no less - much more than anyone would guess.
And added to that money-stack, he had some shares in railway track.

Once - the party, which he led, held a conference where people said ...
"You are
ECONOMICALLY INEPT, MORALLY REPUGNANT AND SPIRITUALLY BEREFT"
      (but that was just those agitators on the left).

Ev'n so Old Uncle Ebenezer bristled on the turn - allowed his anger openly to burn.
"My riches prove beyond all doubt," he wept, "I was never economically inept".
