The Hundred-and-Ten-Tonner!

What is it, spite the First Lord's grace,
That guns of better make and case
At half the cost could well replace?
The Hundred-and-Ten-Tonner!

So, what no more upon the deep
Should JOHN BULL floating useless keep,
But quickly from his Navy sweep?
The Hundred-and-Ten-Tonner!

PROPOSED TUNNEL BETWEEN ENGLAND AND IRELAND.--An Irishman observed

meant it would Leth-bridge them over.
