C. V. Le Grice - Mount's Bay lyrics

Bay of the Mount! whose opening coasts are spread From Mousehole Island to the twin-starred Lizard, Whose waves are speckled with the mullet red, From head to tail all good--except the gizzard; Whose sons the patriotic flame display Which warmed the breast of Hampdens and of Sidneys, Whose sloping headlands with potatoes gay Bloom with the scarlet robe, and silvery kidneys: O! land of yellow ling, and powdered hake! O! cornucopia of clouted cream; O! nurse of matrons sk**ed the pie to bake Beneath the furze-fired kettle! Not a ream Of folio paper from the stores of Hewett, If I could write thy praise, would give me room to do it.
