 Hw greatW the peace, good will and harm<my 
 That prevailed in our City of Toronto 
 
 9n^ celebraUon of the matrimony 
 Of our Queen, and her name will bo our motld^ 
 
 
. How charming and pleasing to behold and icr. 
 An unanimous good feeling of voung and old, 
 Manifesting such good spirits and great glee, 
 And may love and good will of us ever be told,. 
 
 The ribbons, webs, and tartans across the main street 
 That were extended from the upper windows 
 
 Were charming, and a good theme for poets to treat ; 
 Such splendid displays will drive away our sorrows. 
 
 Our markeil-place wa« fitted up wilb green bows . . .^ 
 In a most beautiful and superior style* , 
 
 And the numerous flags a flying in two rows. 
 Arid upon each fate of tlie great crowd was a smile. 
 
 The Ladies fronii the Town-hall made a fine show. 
 And the fine band of the Thirty Second and 
 
 Ninefy-Third Regiments on the gallnrien did go — 
 And upon either of tho sides took up their i(|ind. 
 
 ". J , .. . '■ ' " • , ' ' .'■•.■' • '■■''.*..■ 
 
 At two o'clock all was ready and prepared, . 
 
 And the roasted Ox came in drawn by four horses. 
 And the Thirty-Second's band played & were cheered, 
 
 And the tables were prepared in two courses. 
 
 TheM plaved the roast beef of old England, 
 And the 03's band played God save the Queen, 
 
 And all appeared most majestic and grand, 
 
 And all was beautiful and a tran^ccndant scenQ. 
 
 And plenty of good beefr was handed about, ,^ 
 
 And all that would of it did then soon partake ; 
 
 It w^s acceptable, for it wasjike brown ntnut, 
 As it WHS said we took some for our stomach's sake*
