Southerly Busters

Southerly Busters is a compilation of poems that concern and critique society penned by George Herbert Gibson. Gibson was an Anglo-Australian author of amusing ballads and verse. Excerpt: «Oh! take back the ticket thou gavest, And give me my watch and my ring, And may every sixpence thou savest Be armed with a centipede's sting! O ! uncle, I never expected Such grief would result from my calls, When, hard-up, depressed, and dejected, I came to the Three Golden Balls.»
