Ah me! Ah me!

Nor ever more may see.

And overcast.

[Pg 34]

Why seek the night so fast?

She had no smile,

That flickered out the while.

And heaved a sigh:—

"Nor simple pleasure die.

"But he has gone.

"And I must hasten on."

Alone was she.

Ah me! ah woe is me!

TIME AND RHIME

TIME AND RHIME

A foolish piece and niddy-noddy,

To flirt and dance with everybody.

When very few did come to court her,

That dared, or fancied to transport her.
