ALL THAT MATTERS.
She does not know who Caesar was, Nor when Columbus sailed the seas; She may, for all she says or does, Think Botticelli is a cheese! Now, gentle reader, don't commence To say you think it is a pity To live in ignorance so dense— ' You.,see, she's pretty. She will not wrinkle up her brow rio call to' mind a verse of Keats; Ask her if Shakespeare's writing now fche 11 say she likes the parquet seats; Of current topics she may speak And show misinformation simple— But in the rose-pink of her cheeks lhere is a dimple. So, what is history'to her? What are reformers and their ilk? .bhe has the latest mode in fur And wears the newest shades in silk high .not that she must dwell alone, . Her ignorance don't pity, She kr.ows all that need be known— xou see, she's pretty!
