Firstly, oscillation between events of imperial and of local interest, the anticipated diamond jubilee of Queen Victoria (born 1820, acceded 1837) and the posticipated opening of the new municipal fish market: secondly, apprehension of opposition from extreme circles on the questions of the respective visits of Their Royal Highnesses the duke and duchess of York and of His Majesty King Brian Boru: thirdly, a conflict between professional etiquette and professional emulation concerning the recent erections of the Grand Lyric Hall on Burgh Quay and the Theatre Royal in Hawkins street: fourthly, distraction resultant from compassion for Nelly Bouverist's non-intellectual, non-political, non-topical expression of countenance and concupiscence caused by Nelly Bouverist's revelations of white articles of non-intellectual, non-political, non-topical underclothing while she was in the articles: fifthly, the difficulties of the selection of appropriate music and humorous allusions from Everybody's Book of Jokes (1000 pages and a laugh in every one): sixthly, the rhymes, homophonous and cacophonous, associated with the names of the new lord mayor, Daniel Tallon, the new high sheriff, Thomas Pile and the new solicitorgeneral, Dunbar Plunket Barton.
123首先，有关皇室与当地的两档子事，歌中究竟写哪一桩，令人难以做出抉择。要么是提前描写维多利亚女王（一八二0 年出生，一八三七年即位）的六十周年大庆；要么是将新修建的市营鱼市开张典礼的日期移后。第二，深恐皇族约克公爵和公爵夫人以及布赖恩。勃鲁国王陛下分别前来访问一事，会招致来自左右两方面的反对。第三，新峻工的伯格码头区的大歌剧厅和霍金斯街的皇家剧场，存在着职业的礼仪与职业的竞争之间的矛盾。第四，由于内莉。布弗里斯特的那种非理性、非政治、不时兴的容貌会引起观众的同情；内莉。布弗里斯特身穿非理性、非政治、不时兴的白色衬衣，当她表演时一旦将衬衣袒露出来，会撩拨观众的情欲，令人担心会使观众神魂颠倒。第五，不论是挑选适当的乐曲还是从《笑话共赏集》（共一千页，每个笑话都令人捧腹）里选一些滑稽的隐喻都是困难的。第六，这首主题歌不论谐不谐音，都与新任市长大人丹尼尔。塔仑、新任行政司法长官托马斯。派尔以及新任副检察长邓巴。普伦凯特。巴顿的姓名有联系。
