In misspelled eloquence,

Advanced in his defence. " .

With "wrapturous delite"
IK she'd forgive him just this "wunst
And dine with him that "nite."

On reading Seymour's plaintive note,
With merriment suppressed.'

And let the tryst proceed.

"Peculiar folks these womenare,
Observed young Dividends,
Reflecting on his vain attempts
To timely make amends
To Cynthia for his actions rude,
Paraded at the balL
All overtures he tried to make

I'll ask her out to dine,
And when she reads the note I'll write
She simply can't decline.

By which the heart to reach,

There is upon the beach." j

August rand dignified,
Collapsed on viewing Dividends ,
With Cynthia by his side.
He seated her with studied grace
And most attentive care,

6.---He then a pompous order gave;
With gravity absurd,
For of the menu, couched in French,
He couldn't read a word.
When they of fruit, ice cream and cake
Completely had their fill
He flippantly and brusquely asked
The waiter for his bill.
