IF NO ONE EVER MARRIES ME. If no one. ever marries me And I don't see why they should (For nurse says I'm not pretty, And I'm seldom very good), Jf no one ever marries me I shan't mind very much; I shall buy a squirrel in a cage And a. little rabbit hutch. I shall have a cottage near a wood, And a pony of my own, And a little lamb quite neat and clean Thai I can take to town; And when I'm getting really old, At twenty-eight or nine, ' I shall buy a little orphan girl And bring her up as mine. —LAURENCE ALMA TADEMA.
