“Remember, Remember, the fifth of November,
the Gunpowder treason and plot;
I know of no reason why the Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!
Guy Fawkes, Guys Fawkes, 'twas his intent
To blow up the King and Parliament;
Threescore barrels of powder below,
Poor old England to overthrow.
By God's providence he was catch'd,
With a dark lantern and burning match.”
