MessageThe whole stanza of this 19th-century song read as follows (per
http://www.taemag.com/issues/articleid.16274/article_detail.asp):
Then down with every "metric" scheme
Taught by the foreign school.
We'll worship still our Father's God!
And keep our Father's "rule"!
A perfect inch, a perfect pint,
The Anglo's honest pound,
Shall hold their place upon the earth,
Till time's last trump shall sound!
