Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sensation Dramas for the Back Drawing Room
Scene First. - The Plains of India. The Bogs of Barrampootata seen stretching away into the far distance. Cotton-fields of Chutney on the left, and the Indian Pickle Groves on the right.
N.B. - This Scene will be flavoured with Rimmel's Toilet Vinegar. Chorus of common Fellahs, who are engaged in picking the remuncrative and fragrant native quarrel as the curtain rises.
Hark! 'tain't the Indian drum!
Tum te tum.
And nobody don't come;
Tum te tum.
No, 'tain't the Indian drum,
By Jingo, and by gum!
The woods and rocks around,
Do not at all resound.
No, 'tain t the Indian drum;
Tum, tum, te tum, te tum, te tum.
