MP3 Audio CD. More Bab Ballads Ballad: Mister William Oh, listen to the tale of MISTER WILLIAM, if you please, Whom naughty, naughty judges sent away beyond the seas. He forged a party's will, which caused anxiety and strife, Resulting in his getting penal servitude for life. He was a kindly goodly man, and naturally prone, Instead of taking others' gold, to give away his own. But he had heard of Vice, and longed for only once to strike-- To plan ONE little wickedness--to see what it was like. He argued with himself, and said, "A spotless man am I; I can't be more respectable, however hard I try! For six and thirty years I've always been as good as gold, And now for half an hour I'll plan infamy untold! "A baby who is wicked at the early age of one, And then reforms--and dies at thirty-six a spotless son, Is never, never saddled with his babyhood's defect, But earns from worthy men consideration and respect.
