For the benefit of Mr. Kite,
There will be a show tonight on trampoline.
The Hendersons will all be there,
Late of Pablo Fanques Fair – what a scene!
Over men and horses, hoops and garters,
Lastly throught a hogshead of real fire!
In this way, Mr. K. will challenge the world!
The celebrated Mr. K.
Performs his feat on Saturday at Bishopsgate.
The Hendersons will dance and sing
As Mr. Kite flies through the ring – don’t be late!
Messers K. and H. assure the public
Their production will be second to none.
And of course, Henry the Horse dances the waltz!
The band begins at ten to six,
When Mr. K. performs his tricks without a sound.
And Mr. H. will demonstrate
Ten summersets he’ll undertake on solid ground.
Having been some days in preparation,
A splendid time is guaranteed for all.
And tonight Mr. Kite is topping the bill.
