William Topaz McGonagall - Farewell Address at the Argyle Hall
Work rating: Low

Fellow Citizens of Dundee.
I now must bid farewell to ye.
For I am going to London far away.
But when I will return again I cannot say. 

Farewell! Farewell! to the bonnie banks o` the Silvery Tay.
Also the beautiful Hill o` Balgay.
And the ill fated Bridge o` the Silvery Tay.
Which I will remember when I am far away. 

Farewell! to my friends and, patrons all.
That rallied around me in the Music Hall.
And those that has rallied around me to night,
I shall not forget when out of sight. 

And, if I ever return to Dundee again,
I hope it will be with the laurels of fame.
Plac`d on my brow by dame fortune that fickle Jade.
And, to Court her favour I am not afraid. 

Farewell! to every one in the Argyle Hall.
That has Come to hear McGonagall.
Recite, and sing, his Songs to night.
Which I hope will long be rernember`d when I`m out of sight. 

Adieu to all my enemies that want to mock me when passing by.
But I excuse them for their ignorance and leave them to the most high.
And, once again, my friends, and enemies. I bid ye all good bye.
And when I am gone ye will for me heave a sigh :- 

I return my thanks to my Chairman and my Committee,
For the Kindness they have always shown to me.
I hope the Lord! will protect them when I am far away.
And prosper them in all their undertakings by night and by day.
